.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\f(CW\*(C`Net::LDAP::Control::PersistentSearch\*(C'\fR provides an interface for the creation
and manipulation of objects that represent the \f(CW\*(C`PersistentSearch\*(C'\fR control as
described by draft\-smith\-psearch\-ldap\-03.txt.
.SH "CONSTRUCTOR ARGUMENTS"
.IX Header "CONSTRUCTOR ARGUMENTS"
In addition to the constructor arguments described in
Net::LDAP::Control the following are provided.
.IP "changeTypes" 4
.IX Item "changeTypes"
An integer value determining the types of changes to look out for.
It is the bitwise \s-1OR\s0 of the following values (which represent the \s-1LDAP\s0
operations indicated next to them):
.RS 4
.IP "1 = add" 4
.IX Item "1 = add"
.PD 0
.IP "2 = delete" 4
.IX Item "2 = delete"
.IP "4 = modify" 4
.IX Item "4 = modify"
.IP "8 = modDN" 4
.IX Item "8 = modDN"
.RE
.RS 4
.PD
.Sp
If it is not given it defaults to 15 meaning all changes.
.RE
.IP "changesOnly" 4
.IX Item "changesOnly"
A Boolean value telling whether the server may return
entries that match the search criteria.
.Sp
If \f(CW\*(C`TRUE\*(C'\fR 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)
.IP "returnECs" 4
.IX Item "returnECs"
If \f(CW\*(C`TRUE\*(C'\fR, the server must return an Entry Change Notification
control with each entry returned as the result of changes.
.Sp
See Net::LDAP::Control::EntryChange for details.
.SH "METHODS"
.IX Header "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.
