  LDAPMod* 
mods[]
);

Parameters

ld

[in] Session handle.

Return Value

If this function succeeds, the return value is LDAP_SUCCESS.

If this function fails, it returns an error code. See the LDAP_RETCODEenumeration for a list of possible return values.

Remarks

This 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.

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

When connecting to an LDAP 2 server, the application must perform a bind operation by calling one of the ldap_bindor ldap_simple_bindroutines before attempting any other operations.

Requirements

Header winldap.h
Library wldap32.lib
Windows Embedded CE Windows CE .NET 4.0 and later
Windows Mobile Windows Mobile Version 5.0 and later
