Objective C

So does anyone know Objective C at all.

I am writing my first app and looking for some help.

Basically what I am trying to do is create an app that will send user credentials to our LDAP server and verify them, if everything is correct, it will send me back the users information from which I will manipulate to show user certain buttons depending on what the user has for access rights.

so some terrible pseudo code

username = usernameField
password = passwordField
User = new User(username, password)
if(user.equals(LDAP Credentials)
description = user.description
jobTitle = user.jobTitle
etc

That is all I want to do and the Open LDAP someone wrote seems to be unmanaged now, any ideas and help would be appreciated if anyone knows anything

I have, with zero luck.....I am starting to think I would have to write my own LDAP class and frankly, that isn't going to happen.

Damnit dac....:)

Why didn't I think of that?:)


There is an Old and outdated Open LDAP class that someone created and has left alone for 3 years.


Unfortunately a lot of changes with xCode have happened since then leaving the class they provided useless.

TBH I really don't know objective C that well, I just started learning and while I could go through their thousands of lines of code and try to update it myself to get it working again.

I instead tried to seek the knowledge of the myth community :(

TL;DR Google has no answer
