Parameters

This function takes the following parameter:

bval

Pointer to the berval structure used to initialize the newly allocated Slapi_Value.

Returns

This function returns a pointer to the newly allocated Slapi_Value. If space cannot be allocated (for example, if no more virtual memory exists), the slapd program will terminate.
