Slapi_ComponentId

Opaque structure representing a component identifier used by the server to identify the plug-in when processing internal operations.

Syntax

#include "slapi-plugin.h"
typedef struct slapi_componentid Slapi_ComponentId;

Example

The following code excerpt sets a plug-in component identifier used during an internal search.

Example 15–3 Setting a Plug-In Identifier for Use with Internal Operations

#include "slapi-plugin.h"
/* Declare the identifier as global to the plug-in.                 */

/* Assign a value as part of plug-in initialization.                */
int

    int rc = 0;
    /* Register description, other functions, and so forth.         */
    rc |= slapi_pblock_set(
        pb,
        SLAPI_PLUGIN_START_FN,
        (void *) testpostop_set_log

    /* Assign a value to the identifier.                            */
    rc |= slapi_pblock_get(pb, SLAPI_PLUGIN_IDENTITY, &postop_id);
    return (rc);

/* The server uses the identifier when processing
 * internal operations, such as an internal search.                 */
