return ldapUserList({"cn", "uid"}, "objectClass=inetOrgPerson");
//example return value: Aaron Atrc|user.3|Aarika Atpco|user.2|Aaren Atp|user.1|Aartjan Aalders|user.4|Aaccf Amar|user.0

// contains cn,uid for the 5 users matching the filter: cn1,uid1,cn2,uid2,cn3,uid3 ...

Code Block
struct mystruct {
  string cn;
  string uid;
}

mystruct [] arr = ldapUserList({"cn", "uid"}, "objectClass=inetOrgPerson"); 

//now you can access it by:
string x = arr[0].cn; //life is better, huh ?

...
