There was a problem hiding this comment.
👍 thanks for tracking this down and making the fix.
Also 👍 to bumping the version to 0.16.2 as this isn't modifying any API interfaces; if anything, it will improve existing functionality by properly setting the @result as expected, which would classify this as a bug fix.
I believe this comment is indicating that the result isn't checked and acted on, not necessarily that the result should be dropped altogether. |

Hi friends 👋 this is a follow up to #331, same fix, but including the fixed CI build 🎉
What
I identified that clients cannot safely rely on
Net::LDAP#get_operation_resultwhen usingNet::LDAP#openbecause@resultis not set. As a consequence, clients callingNet::LDAP#get_operation_resultwould get the previous cached@result. Yikes 🙀How
The solution is simple: to cache
@resultaccordingly, like other methods in the class do. You can see the 🐛 reproduced in ab18e5b. The test is 8ba3f95And then going 🍏 in 92be710
Assumptions
It's not clear to me if this was an intentional design choice. Maybe no one was meant to call
Net::LDAP#get_operation_resultafterNet::LDAP#open? If that's the case, I couldn't find any evidence.I see there are some comments explicitly calling out the result is deliberately ignored ¯_(ツ)_/¯
