Thanks. I've corrected this.

Yes

I've added a Net::LDAP::Intermediate class (inspired by
net::LDAP::Control) with the ability to expand (for example
Net::LDAP::Intermediate::SyncInfo), see attached patch (work in
progress). This class is used from Net::LDAP::Search->decode().
The problem is that Convert::ASN1 doesn't understand this quite
complex BER script :
syncInfoValue ::= CHOICE {
newcookie [0] syncCookie,
refreshDelete [1] SEQUENCE {
refreshDeleteCookie syncCookie OPTIONAL,
refreshDeleteDone BOOLEAN -- DEFAULT TRUE
}
refreshPresent [2] SEQUENCE {
refreshDeletecookie syncCookie OPTIONAL,
refreshDeleteDone BOOLEAN -- DEFAULT TRUE
}
syncIdSet [3] SEQUENCE {
cookie syncCookie OPTIONAL,
refreshDeletes BOOLEAN, -- DEFAULT FALSE
syncUUIDs SET OF syncUUID
}
}
with the attached "out" (which is working with enber/unber). Any idea
of where the problem comes from?

I'll use git soon.
