The desired timeout during polling with
.BR ldap_sync_poll (3).
A value of

+.BR \-1
means that polling is blocking, so
.BR ldap_sync_poll (3)
will not return until a message is received; a value of
.BR ldap_parse_result (3).
The
.BR refreshDeletes
-argument is not relevant in this case; it should always be -1.
+argument is not relevant in this case; it should always be \-1.
.TP
.BI "void *" ls_private
A pointer to private data. The client may register here

+responses, a timeout of \-1 is most suitable, so that the function
only returns after some data has been received and handled.
