Method: Net::LDAP::Filter.parse_ldap_filter

Defined in:
lib/net/ldap/filter.rb

.parse_ldap_filter(obj) ⇒ Object

– We get a Ruby object which comes from parsing an RFC-1777 “Filter” object. Convert it to a Net::LDAP::Filter. TODO, we’re hardcoding the RFC-1777 BER-encodings of the various filter types. Could pull them out into a constant.
