Chapter 56. Parameters that Convert Strings to Entries
The parameters listed below are pblock parameters; they are flags that can be passed to the
slapi_str2entry() function.
| Parameter ID | Description |
|---|---|
SLAPI_STR2ENTRY_ADDRDNVALS | In the conversion from strings to entries, adds the RDN value as an attribute if it is not present. |
SLAPI_STR2ENTRY_BIGENTRY | Provides a hint that the entry is large; this enables some optimizations related to large entries. |
SLAPI_STR2ENTRY_EXPAND_OBJECT CLASSES | Adds any missing ancestor values based on the object class hierarchy. |
SLAPI_STR2ENTRY_IGNORE_STATE | Ignores entry state information if present. |
SLAPI_STR2ENTRY_INCLUDE_VERSION_STR | Returns entries that have a version: 1 line as part of the LDIF representation. |
SLAPI_STR2ENTRY_NOT_WELL_FORMED_LDIF | Informs slapi_str2entry() that the LDIF input is not well formed. Well formed LDIF input has no duplicate attribute values, already has the RDN as an attribute of the entry, and has all values for a given attribute type listed contiguously. |
SLAPI_STR2ENTRY_REMOVEDUPVALS | Removes duplicate values. |
SLAPI_STR2ENTRY_TOMBSTONE_CHECK | Checks to see if the entry is a tombstone; if so, sets the tombstone flag. |
