[Freeipa-devel] [PATCH] 229 standardized return values

[Rob Crittenden]

We need to return somewhat standardized return values so that scripters 
can tell when something has gone wrong. Up to now it would return a 
mashup of the errno code set in the exception but this doesn't easily 
translate into a 0-255 values supported by the shell.

The default value is 1 which means "general failure." A return value of 
2 is for not found. 0 means success.

This also fixes a long-standing bug with *-find where it would return a 
0 if no entries were found. Once the new LDAP backend is integrated and 
we call the select_entry() method then it will return NotFound() if no 
matching values were found.
