NAME
       ldap_add, ldap_add_s - Perform an LDAP add operation

SYNOPSIS
       #include <ldap.h>

       int ldap_add(ld, dn, attrs)
       LDAP *ld;
       char *dn;
       LDAPMod *attrs[];

       int ldap_add_s(ld, dn, attrs)
       LDAP *ld;
       char *dn;
       LDAPMod *attrs[];

DESCRIPTION
       The  ldap_add_s()  routine is used to perform an LDAP add operation.  It takes dn, the DN of the entry to add, and attrs, a null-terminated
       array of the entry's attributes.  The LDAPMod structure is used to represent attributes, with the mod_type and mod_values fields being used
       as  described under ldap_modify(3), and the ldap_op field being used only if you need to specify the LDAP_MOD_BVALUES option. Otherwise, it
       should be set to zero.

       Note that all entries except that specified by the last component in the given DN must already exist.  ldap_add_s() returns an  LDAP  error
       code indicating success or failure of the operation.  See ldap_error(3) for more details.

       The  ldap_add()	routine works just like ldap_add_s(), but it is asynchronous.  It returns the message id of the request it initiated.  The
       result of this operation can be obtained by calling ldap_result(3).

ERRORS
       ldap_add() returns -1 in case of error initiating the request, and will set the ld_errno field in the ld parameter to indicate  the  error.
       ldap_add_s() will return an LDAP error code directly (LDAP_SUCCESS if everything went ok, some error otherwise).
