NAME

       ldap_get_entry_controls - get the LDAP controls included with a directory entry in a set of search results

SYNOPSIS

       cc-flag ... file...-lldap [ -library ... ]
       #include <ldap.h>

       int ldap_get_entry_controls(LDAP *ld, LDAPMessage *entry,
	    LDAPControl ***serverctrlsp

DESCRIPTION

       The  ldap_get_entry_controls() function retrieves the LDAP v3 controls included in a directory entry in a chain of search results. The LDAP
       controls are specified in an array of LDAPControl structures. Each LDAPControl structure represents an LDAP  control.  The  function  takes
       entry as a parameter, which points to an LDAPMessage structure that represents an entry in a chain of search results.

       The  entry  notification  controls  that  are  used with persistent search controls are the only controls that are returned with individual
       entries. Other controls are returned with results sent from the server. You can call ldap_parse_result() to retrieve those controls.
