ldap_result (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

This function obtains the result of an asynchronous operation.

Syntax

ULONG ldap_result(
  LDAP* ld,
  ULONG msgid,
  ULONG all,
  LDAP_TIMEVAL* timeout,
  LDAPMessage** res
);

Parameters

  • ld
    [in] Session handle.
  • msgid
    [in] Message identifier of the operation, or the constant LDAP_RES_ANY if any result is desired.
  • all
    [in] Specifies how many messages will be retrieved in a single call to this function. This parameter only has meaning for search results. Pass the constant LDAP_MSG_ONE (0x00) to retrieve one message at a time. Pass LDAP_MSG_ALL (0x01) to request that all results of a search be received before returning all results in a single chain. Pass LDAP_MSG_RECEIVED (0x02) to indicate that all results retrieved so far should be returned in the result chain.
  • timeout
    [out] A time-out specifying how long to wait (in seconds) for results to be returned. A NULL value causes this function to block until results are available. A time-out value of 0 seconds specifies a polling behavior.
  • res
    [out] Contains the results of the operation.

Return Value

If this function succeeds, it returns one a value to indicate the type of the first result in the res parameter. The following table shows the possible return values.

Return value

LDAP_RES_ADD

LDAP_RES_BIND

LDAP_RES_COMPARE

LDAP_RES_DELETE

LDAP_RES_EXTENDED

LDAP_RES_MODDN

LDAP_RES_MODIFY

LDAP_RES_SEARCH_ENTRY

LDAP_RES_SEARCH_REFERENCE

LDAP_RES_SEARCH_RESULT

If the time-out expires, this function returns 0.

If this function fails, it returns –1 and sets the session error parameters in the LDAP data structure.

Remarks

This function retrieves the result of a previous, asynchronously initiated operation.

Note

Depending on the way it is called, this function may actually return a list or "chain" of messages.

For connectionless LDAP, you must pass both an LDAP connection handle and a message identifier to ensure that you get the correct results. The LDAP run time continues to send the request until it receives a response.

In a multithreading environment, calls to this function are thread-safe.

Requirements

Header winldap.h
Library wldap32.lib
Windows Embedded CE Windows CE .NET 4.0 and later
