ldap_extended_operationA function (winldap.h)
The ldap_extended_operation function enables you to pass extended LDAP operations to the server.
Syntax
WINLDAPAPI ULONG LDAPAPI ldap_extended_operationA(
[in] LDAP *ld,
[in] const PSTR Oid,
[in] berval *Data,
[in] PLDAPControlA *ServerControls,
[in] PLDAPControlA *ClientControls,
[out] ULONG *MessageNumber
);
Parameters
[in] ld
The session handle.
[in] Oid
A pointer to a null-terminated string that contains the dotted object identifier text string that names the request.
[in] Data
The arbitrary data required by the operation. If NULL, no data is sent to the server.
[in] ServerControls
Optional. A list of LDAP server controls. Set this parameter to NULL, if not used.
[in] ClientControls
Optional. A list of client controls. Set this parameter to NULL, if not used.
[out] MessageNumber
The message ID for the request.
Return value
If the function succeeds, LDAP_SUCCESS is returned.
If the function fails, an error code is returned. For more information, see Return Values.
Remarks
The ldap_extended_operation function enables a client to send an extended request (free for all) to an LDAP 3 (or later) server. The functionality is open and the client request can be for any operation.
As an asynchronous function, ldap_extended_operation returns a message ID for the operation. Call ldap_result with the message ID to get the result of the operation. To cancel an asynchronous operation, call ldap_abandon.
Because of the open nature of the request, the client must call ldap_close_extended_op to terminate the request.
Multithreading: The ldap_extended_operation function is thread-safe.
