Subject: Timeout on new method is ignored by bind method UNCLASSIFIED
Date: Wed, 31 Dec 2008 13:17:11 -0000
To: <bug-perl-ldap [...] rt.cpan.org>
From: "Ingram, Clyde" <Clyde.Ingram [...] EDMS.EDS.COM>
The manpage for Net::LDAP version 0.34 says I can call the Net::LDAP new method with: timeout => N However, a subsequent call to the bind method hangs. The underlying fault may be that IO::Socket::INET now has code to discard the Timeout argument. Please see bug report "IO::Socket::INET Timeout no longer works" at: http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=38731 Tested with IO 1.23_01, and IO::Socket 1.31. Is there any alternative mechanism to timeout a bind request? Regards and Happy New Year, Clyde Ingram

The timeout in IO::Socket is only used for connect. If you are calling bind then you already have your connection. Net::LDAP in sync mode (the default) will always wait for responses. If you want to timeout waiting for a response, then you need to use async mode and use select() on the socket Graham.
