Running This Sample in StreamBase Studio

  1. In the Project Explorer view, open the sample you just loaded.

  3. Open the LDAPClient.sbapp file and click the Run button. This opens the SB Test/Debug perspective and starts the module.

  4. In the Output Streams view, look for the ServerStatus and ConnectionStatus tuples which show the server starting and the client connecting to the server.

  5. In the Manual Input view, select the GetEntry stream, set the DN value to uid=00000001,ou=Administrative,ou=StreamBase and click Send Data.

  6. In the Output Streams view, look for the EntryResult tuples for the GetEntry operation results.

  7. When done, press F9 or click the Terminate EventFlow Fragment button.
