);

Parameters

• ExternalHandle
  [in] Session handle.

• DistinguishedName
  [in] Distinguished name of the entry at which to start the search.

• ScopeOfSearch
  [in] Specifies a value to indicate the scope of the search. The following table shows the possible values.

  Value	Description
  LDAP_SCOPE_BASE	Searches the base entry only.
  LDAP_SCOPE_ONELEVEL	Searches all entries in the first level below the base entry, excluding the base entry.
  LDAP_SCOPE_SUBTREE	Searches the base entry and all entries in the tree below the base.

• SearchFilter
  [in] Pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the search filter.

• AttributeList
  [in] Null-terminated array of strings indicating which attributes to return for each matching entry. Pass NULL to retrieve all available attributes.

• AttributesOnly
  [in] Boolean value that should be zero if both attribute types and values are to be returned and nonzero if only types are wanted.

• ServerControls
  [in] List of LDAP server controls.

• ClientControls
  [in] List of client controls.

• PageTimeLimit
  [in] Amount of time the client will wait for the server to return a page.

• TotalSizeLimit
  [in] Maximum number of entries the client will accept.

• SortKeys
  [in] Pointer to an LDAPSortKey structure, which specifies the attribute type, the ordering rule, and the direction for the search.

Return Value

If this function succeeds, it returns a pointer to an LDAPSearch structure.

If this function fails, the return value is NULL. Use LdapGetLastError or GetLastError to retrieve the error code.

Remarks

Call ldap_search_init_page to begin a paged-results search. When the function returns, use the returned handle in calls to ldap_get_paged_count, ldap_get_next_page, and ldap_get_next_page_s.

To determine whether a server supports paged-results searches, select the supportedControl property of the root for an object identifier of 1.2.840.113556.1.4.319.
