+<blockquote>
+<p>
+
The extended LDAP sampler was built to support testing for very complex testpurposes.
It was aimed at supporting the LDAP operations as close as possible.
In this short tutorial, I will explain which LDAP operations exist and what they do.
Per operation, I will shortly explain how these operations are implemented.
- <br >
- </br>
-
+<br>
+</br>
+
LDAP servers are some kind of hierarchical database, they store objects (entries) in a tree. The uppermost part of a tree is called the ROOT of the tree.
- <br >
- </br>
-
+<br>
+</br>
+
eg. When a tree starts with dc=com, the root equals dc=com.
- <br >
- </br>
-
+<br>
+</br>
+
The next level can exist under the root, eg dc=Siemens. The full name of this object (the "distinghuised name") is "dc=siemens,dc=com.
- <br >
- </br>
-
+<br>
+</br>
+
Again, a following level can be made, by adding the user "cn=admin" under dc=siemens,dc=com. This object has a DN (distinguished name) of "cn=admin,dc=siemens,dc=com".
- <br >
- </br>
-
+<br>
+</br>
+
The relative distinguished name (RDN) is the last part of the DN, eg. cn=admin.
- <br >
- </br>
-
+<br>
+</br>
+
The characteristics of an object are determined by the objectClasses, which can be seen as a collection of attributes.
- <br >
- </br>
-
+<br>
+</br>
+
The type of an object is determined by the "structural objectClass" eg person, organizationalUnit or country.
- <br >
- </br>
-
+<br>
+</br>
+
The attributes contain the data of an object, eg mailadress, name, streetadress etc. Each attribute can have 0, 1 or more values.

This operation modifies the distinguished name from an object (it "moves" the object).

It comes in two flavours, just renaming an entry, then you specify a new RDN (relative distinguished name, this is the lowest part of the DN)
- <br >

eg, you can rename "cn=admin,dc=siemens,dc=com" to cn=administrator,dc=Siemens,dc=com"

- </br>
-
+<br>
+</br>
+
The second flavour is renaming (moving) a complete subtree by specifying a "new superior"
- <br >
- </br>
-
+<br>
+</br>
+
eg you can move a complete subtree "ou=retired,ou=people,dc=siemens,dc=com" to a new subtree "ou=retired people,dc=siemens,dc=com" by specifying
a new rdn "ou=retired people" and a new superior of "dc=siemens,dc=com"

+A listener is a component that shows the results of the
samples. The results can be shown in a tree, tables, graphs or simply written to a log
file. To view the contents of a response from any given sampler, add either of the Listeners "View
Results Tree" or "View Results in table" to a test plan. To view the response time graphically, add
graph results, spline results or distribution graph.
The
- <a href="../usermanual/component_reference.html#listeners">listeners</a>

+<a href="../usermanual/component_reference.html#listeners">listeners</a>

The "Configure" button can be used to specify which fields to write to the file, and whether to

CSV files are much smaller than XML files, so use CSV if you are generating lots of samples.

If you only wish to record certain samples, add the Listener as a child of the sampler.
Or you can use a Simple Controller to group a set of samplers, and add the Listener to that.
The same filename can be used by multiple samplers - but make sure they all use the same configuration!

The default items to be saved can be defined in the jmeter.properties (or user.properties) file.
The properties are used as the initial settings for the Listener Config pop-up, and are also
used for the log file specified by the -l command-line flag (commonly used for non-GUI test runs).

The information to be saved is configurable. For maximum information, choose "xml" as the format and specify "Functional Test Mode" on the Test Plan element. If this box is not checked, the default saved
data includes a time stamp (the number of milliseconds since midnight,
January 1, 1970 UTC), the data type, the thread name, the label, the
response time, message, and code, and a success indicator. If checked, all information, including the full response data will be logged.

The corresponding jmeter.properties that need to be set are shown below. One oddity
in this example is that the output_format is set to csv, which
typically
indicates comma-separated values. However, the default_delimiter was
set to be a vertical bar instead of a comma, so the csv tag is a
misnomer in this case. (Think of CSV as meaning character separated values)

When running in non-GUI mode, the -l flag can be used to create a top-level listener for the test run.

The configuration of this listener is controlled by entries in the file jmeter.properties
as described in the previous section.

This feature can be used to specify different data and log files for each test run, for example:

However, this can make the file rather large, and the text has to be encoded so
