ULONG ldap_modify_s(
  LDAP* ld,
  PCHAR dn,
  LDAPMod* mods[]
);

Parameters

ld

[in] The session handle.

dn

[in] The name of the entry to modify.

If the function succeeds, the return value is LDAP_SUCCESS.

Remarks

The ldap_modify_s function initiates a synchronous operation to modify an existing entry. If values are being added to or replaced in the entry, the function creates the attribute, if necessary. If values are being deleted, the function removes the attribute if no values remain. All modifications are performed in the order in which they are listed.

Multithreading: Calls to ldap_modify_s are thread-safe.

Note  When connecting to an LDAP 2 server, the application must perform a bind operation (by calling one of the ldap_bind or ldap_simple_bind routines) before attempting any other operations.
