Sun Java System Directory Server Enterprise Edition 6.1 Developer's Guide

New Object Extensions (4 to 5.2)

Object extensions offer a new way of passing data through Directory Server from plug-in to plug-in. The following macros define extensible objects:

SLAPI_EXT_CONNECTION
SLAPI_EXT_ENTRY
SLAPI_EXT_MTNODE
SLAPI_EXT_OPERATION

The following new functions and associated constructor and destructor callbacks are part of the object extension interface:

slapi_extension_constructor_fnptr
slapi_extension_destructor_fnptr
slapi_get_object_extension()
slapi_register_object_extension()
slapi_set_object_extension()
