Using ldap.resiter.ResultProcessor
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This example demonstrates how to use mix-in class ldap.resiter.ResultProcessor for
retrieving results formerly requested with :py:meth:`ldap.LDAPObject.search()` and
processing them in a for-loop.

::

  import sys,ldap,ldap.resiter

  class MyLDAPObject(ldap.ldapobject.LDAPObject,ldap.resiter.ResultProcessor):
    pass

  l = MyLDAPObject('ldap://localhost')

  # Asynchronous search method
  msg_id = l.search('dc=stroeder,dc=com',ldap.SCOPE_SUBTREE,'(objectClass=*)')

  for res_type,res_data,res_msgid,res_controls in l.allresults(msg_id):
    for dn,entry in res_data:
      # process dn and entry
      print(dn,entry['objectClass'])
