Remarks

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

The parameters and effects of ldap_modify_ext_s subsume those of ldap_modify_s. The extended routine includes additional parameters to support client and server controls.

Multithreading: Calls to ldap_modify_ext_s are thread-safe.
