ldap_next_entry

The ldap_next_entry function retrieves an entry from a search result chain.

LDAPMessage* ldap_next_entry(
  LDAP* ld,
  LDAPMessage* entry
);

Parameters

ld

[in] The session handle.

entry

[in] The entry returned by a previous call to ldap_first_entry or ldap_next_entry.

Return Values

If the search returned valid results, this function returns a pointer to the next result entry in the results set. If no further entries or references exist in the result set, it returns NULL. This is the only error return; the session error parameter in the LDAP data structure is cleared to 0 in either case.

Remarks

Use ldap_next_entry in conjunction with ldap_first_entry to step through and retrieve the list of entries from a search result chain.

You are not required to explicitly free the returned entry because it is freed when the message itself is freed.
