<h2>Controls for LDAP APIs</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Certain LDAP Version 3 operations can be extended with the use of controls.
|
|
Controls can be sent to a server, or returned to the client with any LDAP
|
|
message. This type of control is called a server control.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The LDAP API also supports a client-side extension mechanism, which can be
|
|
used to define client controls. The client-side controls affect the behavior of
|
|
the LDAP client library, and are never sent to the server. Note that
|
|
client-side controls are not defined for this client library.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>A common data structure is used to represent both server-side and
|
|
client-side controls:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
typedef struct ldapcontrol {
|
|
char *ldctl_oid;
|
|
struct berval ldctl_value;
|
|
char ldctl_iscritical;
|
|
} LDAPControl, *PLDAPControl;
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>The LDAPControl fields have the following definitions:</p>
|
|
|
|
<table cellpadding="5">
|
|
<!-- cols="15 85" -->
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td align="left" valign="top"><strong><em>ldctl_oid</em></strong></td>
|
|
<td align="left" valign="top">The control type, represented as a string.</td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td align="left" valign="top"><strong><em>ldctl_value</em></strong></td>
|
|
<td align="left" valign="top">The data associated with the control. Note that
|
|
the control may not include data.</td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td align="left" valign="top"><strong><em>ldctl_iscritical</em></strong></td>
|
|
<td align="left" valign="top">Whether the control is critical. If the field is
|
|
nonzero, the operation will be carried out only if it is recognized and
|
|
supported by the server (or the client for client-side controls).</td>
|
|
</tr>
|
