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
&amp;ldquo;True&amp;rdquo; for the search string you specify.
Syntax
[%st =] %ld:FindApprox( attrib, searchString, %doc, - [,&amp;nbsp;AttributesOnly=bool] - [,&amp;nbsp;ReturnAttributes=%sl] - [,&amp;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".
