The
.B ldap_extended_operation_s()
routine is used to synchronously perform an LDAP extended operation.
-It takes \fIrequestoid\fP, which points to a dotted OID text string identifying
-the extended operation to perform. \fIrequestdata\fP is the data required for the
-operation, \fIseverctrls\fP is an array of LDAPControl structures to use with this
-extended operation,\fIclientctrls\fP is an array of LDAPControl structures that list
-the client controls to use with this extended operation .The input parameter
-\fIretoidp\fP points to a dotted-OID text string returned by the LDAP server.
-The memory used by the string should be freed with the ldap_memfree function.
-retdatap is an output parameter which points to a pointer to a berval structure
-that contains the returned data. If no data is returned, the server set this
-to NULL. The memory used by this structure should be freed with the ber_bvfree
