Re: Question about ldap filter

Hi there:

I'm trying to understand how ldap filters work. Based on this simple
logic expression:

EXPR_1 (or) EXPR_2

if EXPR1 returns TRUE, will slapd still try to evaluate EXPR2? or will
slapd evaluate EXPR2 anyway even if EXPR_1 is true?

I think that while the ldap filter is bigger then performance is worse,
right?

could somebody explain me a little about this logic of evaluation in
ldap filters?

As far as I understand the code, test_filter() stops filtering, returning success, at the first occurrence of TRUE.
