h2. Description

'ActiveLdap' is a ruby library which provides a clean objected oriented interface to LDAP library. It was inspired by ActivRecord. This is not nearly as clean or as flexible as ActiveRecord, but it is still trivial to define new objects and manipulate them with minimal difficulty.

For example and usage - read the "document":http://ruby-activeldap.rubyforge.org/.

h2. Prerequisites

• Ruby intepreter := One of them:

• "Ruby":http://www.ruby-lang.org (1.8.x or 1.9.x)
• "JRuby":http://www.jruby.org/

See the above links for installation. =:

• LDAP client := JRuby doesn't need to install new library because JRuby has builtin LDAP support. Ruby users need one of them:

• "Ruby/LDAP":http://rubyforge.org/projects/ruby-ldap/
• "Net::LDAP":http://rubyforge.org/projects/net-ldap/

See the above links for installation. =:

• ActiveModel := A toolkit for building modeling frameworks like Active Record and Active Resource. =:

h2. Notes

• Only GSSAPI SASL support exists due to Ruby/LDAP limitations

h2. Rails

See "Rails":file.rails.html page for Rails integration.
