DESCRIPTION
    "Net::LDAP::Control::SortResult" is a sub-class of Net::LDAP::Control.
    It provides a class for manipulating the LDAP sort request control
    1.2.840.113556.1.4.474 as defined in RFC-2891

    A sort result control will be returned by the server in response to a
    search with a Server Side Sort control. If a sort result control is not
    returned then the user may assume that the server does not support
    sorting and the results are not sorted.

CONSTRUCTOR ARGUMENTS
    attr
        If "result" indicates that there was a problem with sorting and that
        problem was due to one of the attributes specified in the sort
        control. "attr" is set to the name of the attribute causing the
        problem.

    result
        This is the result code that describes if the sort operation was
        successful. If will be one of the result codes describes below.

METHODS
    As with Net::LDAP::Control each constructor argument described above is
    also available as a method on the object which will return the current
    value for the attribute if called without an argument, and set a new
    value for the attribute if called with an argument.

RESULT CODES
    Possible results from a sort request are listed below. See
    Net::LDAP::Constant for a definition of each.

    LDAP_SUCCESS
    LDAP_OPERATIONS_ERROR
    LDAP_TIMELIMIT_EXCEEDED
    LDAP_STRONG_AUTH_REQUIRED
    LDAP_ADMIN_LIMIT_EXCEEDED
    LDAP_NO_SUCH_ATTRIBUTE
    LDAP_INAPPROPRIATE_MATCHING
    LDAP_INSUFFICIENT_ACCESS
    LDAP_BUSY
    LDAP_UNWILLING_TO_PERFORM
    LDAP_OTHER
