  • Lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP) join search mechanism
    Patent number: 9608958
    Abstract: Complex search tasks are performed relative to an LDAP directory with a minimal quantity of LDAP search operations. Search tasks that follow relationships between LDAP entries can be performed, even under circumstances in which those relationships are not represented by the hierarchical structure of the LDAP directory. A client application can specify an LDAP control that the client application sends to the LDAP server along with the LDAP search operation. The LDAP server's receipt of the LDAP control can cause the LDAP server to modify the behavior of the search operation so that the LDAP server follows potentially non-hierarchical specified relationships between the LDAP entries in determining the set of entries to return as results of the search operation. As a result, the LDAP server can return a complete set of related result entries to the client application in response to a single LDAP search operation directed by the application.
