24.44. slapi_entry_set_dn()
Sets the distinguished name (DN) of an entry.
Description
This function sets the DN pointer in the specified entry to the DN that you supply.
Syntax
#include "slapi-plugin.h" void slapi_entry_set_dn( Slapi_Entry *e, Slapi_DN *dn );
Parameters
This function takes the following parameters:
|
e
| Entry to which you want to assign the DN. |
|
dn
| Distinguished name to assign to the entry. |
Memory Concerns
The dn will be freed eventually when slapi_entry_free() is called.
A copy of dn should be passed. For example:
Slapi_DN *dn = slapi_ch_strdup(some_dn): slapi_entry_set_dn(e, dn);
The old dn will be freed as a result of this call. Do not pass in a
NULL value.
