NAME

       ldap_add_ext, ldap_add_ext_s - Perform an LDAP add operation

LIBRARY

       OpenLDAP LDAP (libldap, -lldap)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ldap.h>

       int ldap_add_ext(
              LDAP *ld,
              const char *dn,
              LDAPMod **attrs,
              LDAPControl **sctrls,
              LDAPControl **cctrls,
              int *msgidp );

       int ldap_add_ext_s(
              LDAP *ld,
              const char *dn,
              LDAPMod **attrs,
              LDAPControl *sctrls,
              LDAPControl *cctrls );

DESCRIPTION

       The  ldap_add_ext_s()  routine is used to perform an LDAP add operation.  It takes dn, the
       DN of the entry to add, and attrs, a null-terminated array of the entry's attributes.  The
       LDAPMod structure is used to represent attributes, with the mod_type and mod_values fields
       being used as described under ldap_modify_ext(3), and the ldap_op field being used only if
       you need to specify the LDAP_MOD_BVALUES option. Otherwise, it should be set to zero.

       Note  that  all  entries  except that specified by the last component in the given DN must
       already exist.  ldap_add_ext_s() returns an code indicating success or,  in  the  case  of
       failure,  indicating  the  nature of failure of the operation.  See ldap_error(3) for more
       details.

       The ldap_add_ext() routine works just like ldap_add_ext_s(), but it is  asynchronous.   It
       returns  the  message id of the request it initiated.  The result of this operation can be
       obtained by calling ldap_result(3).

DEPRECATED INTERFACES

       The ldap_add() and ldap_add_s() routines are deprecated in favor of the ldap_add_ext() and
       ldap_add_ext_s() routines, respectively.

       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.
