NAME

       ldap_abandon_ext - Abandon an LDAP operation in progress

LIBRARY

       OpenLDAP LDAP (libldap, -lldap)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ldap.h>

       int ldap_abandon_ext(
              LDAP *ld,
              Bint msgid,
              LDAPControl **sctrls,
              LDAPControl **cctrls );

DESCRIPTION

       The  ldap_abandon_ext()  routine is used to send a LDAP Abandon request
       for an operation in progress.  The msgid passed should be  the  message
       id   of   an   outstanding   LDAP   operation,   such  as  returned  by
       ldap_search_ext(3).

       ldap_abandon_ext() 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 request to 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(3).

       ldap_abandon_ext() allows server and client controls to  be  passed  in
       via the sctrls and cctrls parameters, respectively.

       ldap_abandon_ext() returns a code indicating success or, in the case of
       failure, the nature of the failure.  See ldap_error(3) for details.

DEPRECATED INTERFACES

       The  ldap_abandon()   routine   is   deprecated   in   favor   of   the
       ldap_abandon_ext() routine.

       Deprecated  interfaces  generally  remain  in  the  library.  The macro
       LDAP_DEPRECATED  can  be   defined   to   a   non-zero   value   (e.g.,
       -DLDAP_DEPRECATED=1)  when compiling program designed to use deprecated
       interfaces.  It is recommended that developers writing new programs, or
       updating  old programs, avoid use of deprecated interfaces.  Over time,
       it is  expected  that  documentation  (and,  eventually,  support)  for
       deprecated interfaces to be eliminated.
