• Message class: SLDAP_ICM - ICM LDAP Plugin: Messages

• Message number: 105

• Message text: Deprecated API or signature: &1 &2 &3 &4

What causes this issue?

An ABAP program has called an LDAP API which uses a behavior that is no
longer available when using the ICM LDAP plug-in.
This situation might occur when function modules which are not part of
the documented LDAP ABAP API are used in customer programs.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

For all those situations, another approach using the released LDAP API
is available and must be used.
Following a list of currently known restrictions and their new
proceedings.
FUNC LDAP_SEARCH MODE
FUNC LDAP_SEARCH CROP_DN_ATTR
FUNC LDAP_SEARCH CROP
Function module LDAP_SEARCH does not belong to the released LDAP API.
The function signatures affected here have been introduced for the
internal usage of this low-level API towards the LDAP Connector to
realize the higher-level LDAP API based on the released function module
LDAP_READ.
FUNC LDAP_COMPARE ...
Function module LDAP_COMPARE does not belong to the released LDAP API.
Use LDAP_READ to read the value to compare into ABAP and perform the
comparison there.
FUNC LDAP_ADD MODE
FUNC LDAP_ADD LONG_CVALUE
FUNC LDAP_ADD LONG_XVALUE
FUNC LDAP_MODIFY MODE
FUNC LDAP_MODIFY LONG_CVALUE
FUNC LDAP_MODIFY LONG_XVALUE
Function modules LDAP_ADD and LDAP_MODIFY do not belong to the released
LDAP API. The function signatures affected here have been introduced for
the internal usage of this low-level API towards the LDAP Connector to
realize the higher-level LDAP API based on the released function modules
LDAP_CREATE and LDAP_UPDATE respectively.
FUNC LDAP_READ_CA
FUNC LDAP_WRITE_CA
FUNC LDAP_DELETE_CA
Those function modules do not belong to the released LDAP API. They have
been implemented with hard coded defaults for a single purpose in SAPs
trust management functionality, and this functionality has been
re-implemented based on the released LDAP API.
