The ldap_add_ext_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_ext(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_ext_s()
returns an
code indicating success or, in the case of failure,
indicating the nature of failure of the operation. See
ldap_error(3) for more
details.
The ldap_add_ext()
routine works
just like ldap_add_ext_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).
The ldap_add
() and
ldap_add_s
() routines are
deprecated in favor of the ldap_add_ext
() and ldap_add_ext_s
() routines,
respectively.
Deprecated interfaces generally remain in the library. The macro LDAP_DEPRECATED can be defined to a non-zero value (e.g., -DLDAP_DEPRECATED=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.
