NAME
    Net::LDAP::Control::EntryChange - LDAPv3 Entry Change Notification
    control object

SYNOPSIS
     use Net::LDAP;
     use Net::LDAP::Control::PersistentSearch;
     use Net::LDAP::Constant qw(LDAP_CONTROL_ENTRYCHANGE);

     $ldap = Net::LDAP->new( "ldap.mydomain.eg" );

     $persist = Net::LDAP::Control::PersistentSearch->new( changeTypes => 15,
                                                           changesOnly => 1,
                                                           returnECs => 1 );

     $srch = $ldap->search( base     => "cn=People,dc=mydomain,dc=eg",
                            filter   => "(objectClass=person)",
                            callback => \&process_entry, # call for each entry
                            control  => [ $persist ] );

     die "error: ",$srch->code(),": ",$srch->error()  if ($srch->code());

     sub process_entry {
       my $message = shift;
       my $entry = shift;
       my ($control) = $message->control(LDAP_CONTROL_ENTRYCHANGE);

       print $control->changeType()."\t".$entry->dn()."\n";
     }

DESCRIPTION
    "Net::LDAP::Control::EntryChange" provides an interface for the creation
    and manipulation of objects that represent the "EntryChangeNotification"
    control as described by draft-smith-psearch-ldap-03.txt.

CONSTRUCTOR ARGUMENTS
    In addition to the constructor arguments described in Net::LDAP::Control
    the following are provided.

    changeType
        An integer value telling the type of LDAP operation that the entry
        has undergone. It is one of the following values (which represent
        the LDAP operations indicated next to them):

        1 = add
        2 = delete
        4 = modify
        8 = modDN

    previousDN
        When changeType is 8 (for modDN) this parameter tells the entry's DN
        before the modDN operation. In all other cases this value is not
        defined.

    changeNumber
        This is the change number according to
        <draft-good-ldap-changelog-03.txt> assigned by a server for the
        change. If a server supports an LDAP Change Log it should include
        this field.

    Usually you do not need to create a "Net::LDAP::Control::EntryChange"
    control yourself because it is provided by the server in response to an
    option with the "Net::LDAP::Control::PersistentSearch" control.

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.
