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.
