=head1 NAME

Net::LDAP::Extension::Refresh - LDAPv3 Refresh extension object (RFC 2589)

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 use Net::LDAP;
 use Net::LDAP::Extension::Refresh;

 $ldap = Net::LDAP->new('localhost');
 $ldap->bind('cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com', password => 'password');

 $mesg = $ldap->refresh(entryName => 'cn=dynamic,dc=example,dc=com',
        requestTtl => 100);
 die "error :", $mesg->code(), ": ", $mesg->error()  if ($mesg->code());
 print "TTL changed to ", $mesg->get_ttl(), "\n";

=head1 DESCRIPTION

C<Net::LDAP::Extension::Refresh> implements the C<Refresh> extended LDAPv3
operation as described in RFC 2589

It implements no object by itself but extends the L<Net::LDAP> object
by another method:

=head1 METHODS

=over 4

=item refresh ( OPTIONS )

Send a refresh operation for an object.

OPTIONS is a list of key/value pairs. The following keys are recognized:

=over 4

=item entryName

This option contains the object to refresh. It must be a DN.

=item requestTtl

This option contains the TTL in seconds requested. The server may choose to
set another value as stated in RFC 2589

=back

=item get_ttl ( )

Return the TTL set by the server during the previous C<refresh> call.

This method is a method of the L<Net::LDAP::Message> response object
returned in reply to C<refresh()> in case the C<refresh()> call succeeded.
