Retrieve records with approximate attr values fromthe LDAP directory (LDAP class)


This callable function retrieves all records (entries) from the LDAP directory for which the attribute type you specify has a value that matches equally or for which some locally-defined approximate matching algorithm (based on spelling variations or phonetic match, for example) returns &ldquo;True&rdquo; for the search string you specify.

Syntax

[%st =] %ld:FindApprox( attrib, searchString, %doc, - [,&nbsp;AttributesOnly=bool] - [,&nbsp;ReturnAttributes=%sl] - [,&nbsp;BaseObject=string] )

The syntax terms and most of the usage notes for this function are the same as those for FindEQ.

For additional information, see "Using the Find methods".
