Both have advantages (the first pair has fewer arguments, the second avoids duplicate code). You might consider combining them by having a _modify_generic_directory that is called with apropriate arguments by wrapper subs that provide the needed parameters. That way you aren't duplicating the LDAP code in n different subs, but you reduce the amount of parameters callers have to provide.

And if you're really feeling OOP-y, you might even go as far as creating your own class that keeps all of the things like the LDAP info and what not in the instance rather than explicitly passing gobs of parameters.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
