API RESTRICTIONS

The function or functions documented here may not be used safely in all application contexts with all APIs provided in the ChorusOS 5.0 product.

See API(5FEA) for details.

DESCRIPTION

The ldap_abandon() function is used to abandon or cancel an LDAP operation in progress. The msgid passed should be the message id of an outstanding LDAP operation, as returned by ldap_search(3LDAP), ldap_modify(3LDAP), etc.

ldap_abandon() checks to see if the result of the operation has already come in. If it has, it deletes it from the queue of pending messages. If not, it sends an LDAP abandon operation to the the LDAP server.

The caller can expect that the result of an abandoned operation will not be returned from a future call to ldap_result(3LDAP).

ERRORS

ldap_abandon() returns 0 if successful or -1 otherwise and setting ld_errno appropriately. See ldap_error(3LDAP) for details.
