4.3. International Search Examples

The following sections show examples of how to perform international searches on directory data. Each example gives all the possible matching rule filter formats so that you can become familiar with the formats and select the one that works best.

4.3.1. Less-Than Example

Performing a locale-specific search using the less-than operator (<), or suffix (.1) searches for all attribute values that come before the given attribute in a specific collation order.

For example, to search for all surnames that come before the surname Marquez in the Spanish collation order, any of the following matching rule filters would work:

sn:2.16.840.1.113730.3.3.2.15.1:=< Marquez

...

sn:es:=< Marquez

...

sn:2.16.840.1.113730.3.3.2.15.1.1:=Marquez

...

sn:es.1:=Marquez

4.3.2. Less-Than or Equal-to Example

Performing a locale-specific search using the less-than or equal-to operator (<=), or suffix (.2) searches for all attribute values that come at or before the given attribute in a specific collation order.

For example, to search for all room numbers that come at or before room number CZ422 in the Hungarian collation order, any of the following matching rule filters would work:

roomNumber:2.16.840.1.113730.3.3.2.23.1:=<= CZ422

...

roomNumber:hu:=<= CZ422

...

roomNumber:2.16.840.1.113730.3.3.2.23.1.2:=CZ422

...

roomNumber:hu.2:=CZ422
