ldap_extended_operation, ldap_extended_operation_s — Extends the LDAP operations to the LDAP server.

The ldap_extended_operation_s() routine is used
to synchronously perform an LDAP extended operation. It takes
requestoid, which
points to a dotted-decimal OID string identifying the
extended operation to perform. requestdata is the data
required for the request, sctrls is an array of
LDAPControl structures to use with this extended operation,
cctrls is an array of
LDAPControl structures that list the client controls to use
with this extended operation.
The output parameter retoidp points to a
dotted-decimal OID string returned by the LDAP server. The
memory used by the string should be freed with the ldap_memfree(3) function.
The output parameter retdatap points to a pointer to
a berval structure that contains the returned data. If no
data is returned by the server, the pointer is set this to
NULL. The memory used by this structure should be freed with
the ber_bvfree(3) function.
The ldap_extended_operation() works just like
ldap_extended_operation_s(), but the
operation is asynchronous. It provides the message id of the
request it initiated in the integer pointed to be msgidp. The result of this
operation can be obtained by calling ldap_result(3).
