NAME
    Net::LDAP::Control::PersistentSearch - LDAPv3 Persistent Search control
    object

SYNOPSIS
     use Net::LDAP;
     use Net::LDAP::Control::PersistentSearch;

     $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;

       print $entry->dn()."\n";

       # reduce memory usage
       $message->pop_entry();
     }

DESCRIPTION
    "Net::LDAP::Control::PersistentSearch" provides an interface for the
    creation and manipulation of objects that represent the
    "PersistentSearch" 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.

    changeTypes
        An integer value determining the types of changes to look out for.
        It is the bitwise OR of the following values (which represent the
        LDAP operations indicated next to them):

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

        If it is not given it defaults to 15 meaning all changes.

    changesOnly
        A Boolean value telling whether the server may return entries that
        match the search criteria.

        If "TRUE" the server must not return any existing entries that match
        the search criteria. Entries are only returned when they are changed
        (added, modified, deleted, or subject to a modifyDN operation)

    returnECs
        If "TRUE", the server must return an Entry Change Notification
        control with each entry returned as the result of changes.

        See Net::LDAP::Control::EntryChange for details.

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.
