ldap_memfree(3LDAP) LDAP Library Functions ldap_memfree(3LDAP)NAME
ldap_memfree - free memory allocated by LDAP API functions
SYNOPSIS
cc -flag ... file ...-lldap [-library ...]
#include < lber.h>
#include < ldap.h>
void ldap_memfree(void *p);
DESCRIPTION
The ldap_memfree() function frees the memory allocated by certain LDAP API functions that do not have corresponding functions to free mem-
ory. These functions include ldap_get_dn(3LDAP), ldap_first_attribute(3LDAP), and ldap_next_attribute(3LDAP).
The ldap_memfree() function takes one parameter, p, which is a pointer to the memory to be freed.
PARAMETERS
p A pointer to the memory to be freed.
RETURN VALUES
There are no return values for the ldap_memfree() function.
ERRORS
No errors are defined for the ldap_memfree() function.

ldap_first_entry(3LDAP) LDAP Library Functions ldap_first_entry(3LDAP)NAME
ldap_first_entry, ldap_next_entry, ldap_count_entries, ldap_count_references, ldap_first_reference, ldap_next_reference - LDAP entry pars-
ing and counting functions
SYNOPSIS
cc[ flag... ] file... -lldap[ library... ]
#include <lber.h>
#include <ldap.h>
LDAPMessage *ldap_first_entry(LDAP*ld, LDAPMessage *result);
LDAPMessage *ldap_next_entry(LDAP *ld, LDAPMessage *entry);
ldap_count_entries(LDAP *ld, LDAPMessage *result);
LDAPMessage *ldap_first_reference(LDAP *ld, LDAPMessage *res);
LDAPMessage *ldap_next_reference(LDAP *ld, LDAPMessage *res);
int ldap_count_references(LDAP *ld, LDAPMessage *res);
DESCRIPTION
These functions are used to parse results received from ldap_result(3LDAP) or the synchronous LDAP search operation functions
ldap_search_s(3LDAP) and ldap_search_st(3LDAP).
The ldap_first_entry() function is used to retrieve the first entry in a chain of search results. It takes the result as returned by a
call to ldap_result(3LDAP) or ldap_search_s(3LDAP) or ldap_search_st(3LDAP) and returns a pointer to the first entry in the result.
This pointer should be supplied on a subsequent call to ldap_next_entry() to get the next entry, the result of which should be supplied to
the next call to ldap_next_entry(), etc. ldap_next_entry() will return NULL when there are no more entries. The entries returned from
these calls are used in calls to the functions described in ldap_get_dn(3LDAP), ldap_first_attribute(3LDAP), ldap_get_values(3LDAP), etc.
A count of the number of entries in the search result can be obtained by calling ldap_count_entries().
ldap_first_reference() and ldap_next_reference() are used to step through and retrieve the list of continuation references from a search
result chain.
The ldap_count_references() function is used to count the number of references that are contained in and remain in a search result chain.
ERRORS
If an error occurs in ldap_first_entry() or ldap_next_entry(), NULL is returned and the ld_errno field in the ld parameter is set to indi-
cate the error. If an error occurs in ldap_count_entries(), -1 is returned, and ld_errno is set appropriately. See ldap_error(3LDAP) for
a description of possible error codes.
