LDAP_ABANDON(3LDAP) LDAP Library Functions LDAP_ABANDON(3LDAP)

NAME

ldap_abandon - abandon an LDAP operation in progress

SYNOPSIS

cc[ flag... ] file... -lldap[ library... ]
#include <lber.h>
#include <ldap.h>

int ldap_abandon(LDAP *ld, int msgid);

DESCRIPTION

The ldap_abandon() function is used to abandon or cancel an LDAP
operation in progress. The msgid passed should be the message id of
an outstanding LDAP operation, as returned by ldap_search(3LDAP),
ldap_modify(3LDAP), etc.


ldap_abandon() 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 operation 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(3LDAP).

ERRORS

ldap_abandon() returns 0 if successful or -1otherwise and setting
ld_errno appropriately. See ldap_error(3LDAP) for details.
