These routines are used to extract information from a
result message. They will operate on the first result message
in a chain of search results (skipping past other message
types). They take the result as returned by a call to
ldap_result(3), ldap_search_s(3) or
ldap_search_st(3). In
addition to ldap_parse_result(), the
routines ldap_parse_sasl_bind_result() and
ldap_parse_extended_result()
are used to get all the result information from SASL bind and
extended operations.
The errcodep
parameter will be filled in with the result code from the
result message.
The server might supply a matched DN string in the message
indicating how much of a name in a request was recognized.
The matcheddnp
parameter will be filled in with this string if supplied,
else it will be NULL. If a string is returned, it should be
freed using ldap_memfree(3).
The errmsgp
parameter will be filled in with the error message field from
the parsed message. This string should be freed using
ldap_memfree(3).
The referralsp
parameter will be filled in with an allocated array of
referral strings from the parsed message. This array should
be freed using ldap_memvfree(3). If no
referrals were returned, *referralsp is set to NULL.
The serverctrlsp
parameter will be filled in with an allocated array of
controls copied from the parsed message. The array should be
freed using ldap_controls_free(3). If
no controls were returned, *serverctrlsp is set to
NULL.
The freeit
parameter determines whether the parsed message is freed or
not after the extraction. Any non-zero value will make it
free the message. The ldap_msgfree(3) routine can
also be used to free the message later.
For SASL bind results, the servercredp parameter will be
filled in with an allocated berval structure containing the
credentials from the server if present. The structure should
be freed using ber_bvfree(3).
For extended results, the retoidp parameter will be
filled in with the dotted-OID text representation of the name
of the extended operation response. The string should be
freed using ldap_memfree(3). If no OID
was returned, *retoidp is set to NULL.
For extended results, the retdatap parameter will be
filled in with a pointer to a berval structure containing the
data from the extended operation response. The structure
should be freed using ber_bvfree(3). If no data
were returned, *retdatap is set to NULL.
For all the above result parameters, NULL values can be used in calls in order to ignore certain fields.
Upon success LDAP_SUCCESS is returned. Otherwise the values of the result parameters are undefined.
