NAME
       ldap_add, ldap_add_s, ldap_add_ext, ldap_add_ext_s - Perform an LDAP add operation

LIBRARY
       OpenLDAP LDAP (libldap, -lldap)

SYNOPSIS
       #include 

       int ldap_add(LDAP *ld, const char *dn, LDAPMod *attrs[]);

       int ldap_add_s(LDAP *ld, const char *dn, LDAPMod *attrs[]);

       int ldap_add_ext(LDAP *ld, const char *dn, LDAPMod *attrs[],
              LDAPControl *sctrls[], LDAPControl *cctrls[], int *msgidp);

       int ldap_add_ext_s(LDAP *ld, const char *dn, LDAPMod *attrs[],
              LDAPControl *sctrls[], LDAPControl *cctrls[]);

DESCRIPTION
       The ldap_add_s() routine is used to perform an LDAP add operation.  It takes dn, the DN of
       the entry to add, and attrs, a null-terminated array of the entry's attributes.  The LDAP-
       Mod  structure  is  used  to represent attributes, with the mod_type and mod_values fields
       being used as described under ldap_modify(3), and the ldap_op field being used only if you
       need to specify the LDAP_MOD_BVALUES option. Otherwise, it should be set to zero.

       Note  that  all  entries  except that specified by the last component in the given DN must
       already exist.  ldap_add_s() returns an LDAP error code indicating success or  failure  of
       the operation.  See ldap_error(3) for more details.

       The  ldap_add()  routine works just like ldap_add_s(), but it is asynchronous.  It returns
       the message id of the request it initiated.  The result of this operation can be  obtained
       by calling ldap_result(3).

       The ldap_add_ext() routine allows server and client controls to be specified to extend the
       add request. This routine is asynchronous like ldap_add(), but its return value is an LDAP
       error  code.  It stores the message id of the request in the integer pointed to by msgidp.

       The ldap_add_ext_s() routine is  the  synchronous  version  of  ldap_add_ext().   It  also
       returns an LDAP error code indicating success or failure of the operation.

ERRORS
       ldap_add()  returns  -1 in case of error initiating the request, and will set the ld_errno
       field in the ld parameter to indicate the error.  ldap_add_s() will return an  LDAP  error
       code  directly (LDAP_SUCCESS if everything went ok, some error otherwise).  ldap_add_ext()
       and ldap_add_ext_s() also directly return LDAP error codes.
