Ldap rename
Function : LDAP
ldap_rename - Initiate an asynchronous ldap modify DN operation.
#include <ldap.h>
int LNPUBLIC ldap_rename(
LDAP *ld,
const char *dn,
const char *newrdn,
const char *newparent,
int deleteoldrdn,
LDAPControl **serverctrls,
LDAPControl **clientctrls,
int *msgid);
This function initiates an asynchronous modify DN operation with controls.
Implemented as a macro:
define ldap_rename(ld, dn, newrdn, newparent, deleteoldrdn, serverctrls,
clientctrls, msgid) \ ND_ldap_rename((ld), (dn), (newrdn), (newparent), (deleteoldrdn), (serverctrls), (clientctrls), (msgid))
Parameters : Input : ld - The LDAP session handle.
dn - The name of the entry whose distinguished name is to be changed. If NULL, a zero length DN is sent to the server.
newrdn - The new RDN to give the entry.
newparent - The new parent, or superior entry. If this parameter is NULL, only the RDN of the entry is changed. The root DN SHOULD be specified by passing a zero length string, "". The newparent parameter SHOULD always be NULL when using version 2 of the LDAP protocol; otherwise the server's behavior is undefined.
deleteoldrdn - This parameter only has meaning if newrdn is different than the old RDN. Boolean value: non-zero indicates that the old RDN value(s) is to be removed, zero indicates that the old RDN value(s) is to be retained as non-distinguished values of the entry.
serverctrls - Pointer to a list of LDAP server controls. NULL if no server controls are to be used.
clientctrls - Pointer to a list of LDAP client controls. NULL if no client controls are to be used.
Output : (routine) - LDAP_SUCCESS - If the request was successfully sent, or another LDAP result code if not.
msgid - Pointer to the message id of the request if the ldap_modify_ext call succeeds. The value is undefined if a value other than LDAP_SUCCESS is returned. This ID can be used in subsequent calls to ldap_result to obtain the result(s) of the operation.
Sample Usage :
ldap_rename(ld, dn, newrdn, newparent, deleteoldrdn, serverctrls. clientctrls,
msgid);
