ldap_ufn2dn (Compact 2013)
3/26/2014
This function converts a user-friendly name to a distinguished name.
Syntax
ULONG ldap_ufn2dn(
UNICODE PTCHAR ufn,
UNICODE PTCHAR* pDn
);
Parameters
- ufn
[in] Pointer to a null-terminated string containing the user-friendly name to be converted.
pDn
[out] Pointer to a variable that receives a pointer to a null-terminated string containing the resulting distinguished name.If the pDn parameter comes back as non-NULL, you should free it when you are done with a call to the ldap_memfree function.
Return Value
If this function succeeds, the return value is LDAP_SUCCESS.
If this function fails, it returns an error code. See the LDAP_RETCODE enumeration for a list of possible return values.
Remarks
This function attempts to normalize a user-specified name to a distinguished name. For example, consider an LDAP directory format for a common name of "Lastname, Firstname." Given a directory name of "Jane Doe," this function will attempt to normalize this to "Doe, Jane." The function follows RFC 1781 (add CN= if not present, add OU= if none present, and so on). If it runs into any problems at all while normalizing, the function returns a copy of what was passed. It then allocates the output string from the LDAP memory pool.
