What do I use for the callback function in Net::LDAP::Control::Paged?

[adamsj]

I'm trying to move from an LDAP server which allowed huge queries to an AD server that limits me to a thousand records, and Net::LDAP::Control::Paged looks like the tool I need. But I can't for the life of me understand what the callback function is supposed to be.

You've not said what you want to do with each of the results you're paging through. For example to print the DN for each result:

sub process_entry {
    my ($message, $entry) = @_;
    return unless $entry;
    say $entry->dn;
    $message->pop_entry;
}

See Using the callback subroutine approach from Net::LDAP::FAQ.

Thanks so much! Now I understand--and thanks also for the link to the FAQ.
