ldap_getvalues

Description

The ldap_getvalues() function returns the values that are associated with the specified attribute. The values are returned in a list where each list element represents a value. The length() function can be used to determine the number of elements that are returned in result. If ldap_getvalues() is successful, result has the format {"value", "value", …}.

The ldap_getvalues() function is typically used after a call to ldap_search(), ldap_firstentry(), or ldap_nextentry() to retrieve attribute values for the entry that is currently being processed.
