746 is a set of Lightweight Basic Encoding Rules routines. These
747 routines are used by the LDAP library routines to encode and decode
748 LDAP protocol elements using the (slightly simplified) Basic

750 by an LDAP application program except in the handling of controls
751 and extended operations.
