ldap_abandon(3)

NAME

       ldap_abandon_ext - Abandon an LDAP operation in progress

LIBRARY

       OpenLDAP LDAP (libldap, -lldap)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ldap.h>

       int ldap_abandon_ext(
              LDAP *ld,
              Bint msgid,
              LDAPControl **sctrls,
              LDAPControl **cctrls );

DESCRIPTION

       The  ldap_abandon_ext()  routine is used to send a LDAP Abandon request
       for an operation in progress.  The msgid passed should be  the  message
       id   of   an   outstanding   LDAP   operation,   such  as  returned  by
       ldap_search_ext(3).

       ldap_abandon_ext() checks to see if the result  of  the  operation  has
       already  come  in.   If it has, it deletes it from the queue of pending
       messages.  If not, it sends an LDAP abandon request to the LDAP server.

       The caller can expect that the result of an  abandoned  operation  will
       not be returned from a future call to ldap_result(3).

       ldap_abandon_ext()  allows  server  and client controls to be passed in
       via the sctrls and cctrls parameters, respectively.

       ldap_abandon_ext() returns a code indicating success or, in the case of
       failure, the nature of the failure.  See ldap_error(3) for details.

DEPRECATED INTERFACES

       The  ldap_abandon()  routine  is  deprecated in favor of the ldap_aban-
       don_ext() routine.

       Deprecated interfaces generally  remain  in  the  library.   The  macro
       LDAP_DEPRECATED can be defined to a non-zero value (e.g., -DLDAP_DEPRE-
       CATED=1) when compiling program designed to use deprecated  interfaces.
       It is recommended that developers writing new programs, or updating old
       programs, avoid  use  of  deprecated  interfaces.   Over  time,  it  is
       expected  that  documentation (and, eventually, support) for deprecated
       interfaces to be eliminated.
