LDAP_ABANDON(3) Library Functions Manual LDAP_ABANDON(3)
NAME
ldap_abandon, ldap_abandon_ext - Abandon an LDAP operation in progress
LIBRARY
OpenLDAP LDAP (libldap, -lldap)
SYNOPSIS
#include <ldap.h>
int ldap_abandon(LDAP *ld, int msgid);
int ldap_abandon_ext(LDAP *ld, int msgid,
LDAPControl *sctrls[], LDAPControl *cctrls[]);
DESCRIPTION
The ldap_abandon() routine is used to abandon or cancel an LDAP operation in progress. The msgid passed should be the message id of an
outstanding LDAP operation, as returned by ldap_search(3), ldap_modify(3), etc.
ldap_abandon() checks to see if the result of the operation has already come in. If it has, it deletes it from the queue of pending mes-
sages. If not, it sends an LDAP abandon operation to the 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() is equivalent to ldap_abandon() except that it allows server and client controls to be passed in sctrls and cctrls,
respectively.
ERRORS
ldap_abandon() returns 0 if everything goes ok, -1 otherwise, setting ld_errno with an appropriate LDAP error code.
ldap_abandon_ext() directly returns an LDAP error code indicating success or failure of the operation.
See ldap_error(3) for details.
