LDAP_ADD(3) C LIBRARY FUNCTIONS LDAP_ADD(3)
NAME
ldap_add, ldap_add_s, ldap_add_ext, ldap_add_ext_s - Perform
an LDAP add operation
LIBRARY
OpenLDAP LDAP (libldap, -lldap)
SYNOPSIS
#include <ldap.h>
int ldap_add(LDAP *ld, const char *dn, LDAPMod *attrs
int ldap_add_s(LDAP *ld, const char *dn, LDAPMod *attrs
int ldap_add_ext(LDAP *ld, const char *dn, LDAPMod *attrs
LDAPControl *sctrls[], LDAPControl *cctrls[], int *msgidp
int ldap_add_ext_s(LDAP *ld, const char *dn, LDAPMod *attrs
LDAPControl *sctrls[], LDAPControl *cctrls[]);
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. Other-
wise, it should be set to zero.
Note that all entries except that specified by the last com-
ponent 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).
The ldap_add_ext() routine allows server and client controls
to be specified to extend the add request. This routine is
asynchronous like ldap_add(), but its return value is an
LDAP error code. It stores the message id of the request in
the integer pointed to by msgidp.
The ldap_add_ext_s() routine is the synchronous version of
ldap_add_ext(). It also returns an LDAP error code indicat-
ing success or failure of the operation.

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). ldap_add_ext() and ldap_add_ext_s()
also directly return LDAP error codes.
