+.SH NAME
+ldap_get_option, ldap_set_option \- LDAP option handling routines
+.SH LIBRARY
+OpenLDAP LDAP (libldap, \-lldap)
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+.B #include <ldap.h>
+.LP
+.BI "int ldap_get_option(LDAP *" ld ", int " option ", void *" outvalue ");"
+.LP
+.BI "int ldap_set_option(LDAP *" ld ", int " option ", const void *" invalue ");"
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+These routines provide access to options stored either in a LDAP handle
+or as global options, where applicable.
+They make use of a neutral interface, where the type of the value
+either retrieved by 
+.BR ldap_get_option (3)
+or set by
+.BR ldap_set_option (3)
+is cast to 
+.BR "void *" .
+The actual type is determined based on the value of the
+.B option
+argument.
+Global options are set/retrieved by passing a NULL LDAP handle. LDAP handles
+inherit their default settings from the global options in effect at the time
+the handle is created.
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_API_FEATURE_INFO
+Fills-in a 
+.BR "LDAPAPIFeatureInfo" ;
+.BR outvalue 
+must be a 
+.BR "LDAPAPIFeatureInfo *" ,
+pointing to an already allocated struct.
+The
+.B ldapaif_info_version
+field of the struct must be initialized to
+.B LDAP_FEATURE_INFO_VERSION
+before making the call. The
+.B ldapaif_name
+field must be set to the name of a feature to query.
+This is a read-only option.
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_API_INFO
+Fills-in a 
+.BR "LDAPAPIInfo" ;
+.BR outvalue 
+must be a 
+.BR "LDAPAPIInfo *" ,
+pointing to an already allocated struct. The
+.B ldapai_info_version
+field of the struct must be initialized to
+.B LDAP_API_INFO_VERSION
+before making the call.
+If the version passed in does not match the current library
+version, the expected version number will be stored in the
+struct and the call will fail.
+The caller is responsible for freeing the elements of the
+.B ldapai_extensions
+array and the array itself using
+.BR ldap_memfree (3).
+The caller must also free the
+.BR ldapi_vendor_name .
+This is a read-only option.
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_CLIENT_CONTROLS
+Sets/gets the client-side controls to be used for all operations.
+This is now deprecated as modern LDAP C API provides replacements
+for all main operations which accepts client-side controls as
+explicit arguments; see for example
+.BR ldap_search_ext (3),
+.BR ldap_add_ext (3),
+.BR ldap_modify_ext (3)
+and so on.
+.BR outvalue
+must be 
+.BR "LDAPControl ***" ,
+and the caller is responsible of freeing the returned controls, if any,
+by calling 
+.BR ldap_controls_free (3),
+while
+.BR invalue
+must be 
+.BR "LDAPControl *const *" ;
+the library duplicates the controls passed via
+.BR invalue .
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_CONNECT_ASYNC
+Sets/gets the status of the asynchronous connect flag.
+.BR invalue
+should either be
+.BR LDAP_OPT_OFF
+or
+.BR LDAP_OPT_ON ;
+.BR outvalue
+must be
+.BR "int *" .
+When set, the library will call
+.BR connect (2)
+and return, without waiting for response.
+This leaves the handle in a connecting state.
+Subsequent calls to library routines will poll for completion
+of the connect before performing further operations.
+As a consequence, library calls that need to establish a connection
+with a DSA do not block even for the network timeout
+(option
+.BR LDAP_OPT_NETWORK_TIMEOUT ).
+This option is OpenLDAP specific.
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_CONNECT_CB
+This option allows to set a connect callback.
+.B invalue
+must be a 
+.BR "const struct ldap_conncb *" .
+Callbacks are executed in last in-first served order.
+Handle-specific callbacks are executed first, followed by global ones.
+Right before freeing the callback structure, the
+.B lc_del
+callback handler is passed a 
+.B NULL
+.BR Sockbuf .
+Calling
+.BR ldap_get_option (3)
+for this option removes the callback whose pointer matches
+.BR outvalue .
+This option is OpenLDAP specific.
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_DEBUG_LEVEL
+Sets/gets the debug level of the client library.
+.BR invalue
+must be a 
+.BR "const int *" ;
+.BR outvalue
+must be a
+.BR "int *" .
+Valid debug levels are 
+.BR LDAP_DEBUG_ANY ,
+.BR LDAP_DEBUG_ARGS ,
+.BR LDAP_DEBUG_BER ,
+.BR LDAP_DEBUG_CONNS ,
+.BR LDAP_DEBUG_NONE ,
+.BR LDAP_DEBUG_PACKETS ,
+.BR LDAP_DEBUG_PARSE ,
+and
+.BR LDAP_DEBUG_TRACE .
+This option is OpenLDAP specific.
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_DEFBASE
+Sets/gets a string containing the DN to be used as default base
+for search operations.
+.BR outvalue
+must be a
+.BR "char **" ,
+and the caller is responsible of freeing the returned string by calling
+.BR ldap_memfree (3),
+while
+.BR invalue
+must be a 
+.BR "const char *" ;
+the library duplicates the corresponding string.
+This option is OpenLDAP specific.
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_DEREF
+Sets/gets the value that defines when alias dereferencing must occur.
+.BR invalue
+must be
+.BR "const int *" ;
+.BR outvalue 
+must be
+.BR "int *" .
+They cannot be NULL.
+The value of 
+.BR *invalue
+should be one of
+.BR LDAP_DEREF_NEVER
+(the default),
+.BR LDAP_DEREF_SEARCHING ,
+.BR LDAP_DEREF_FINDING ,
+or
+.BR LDAP_DEREF_ALWAYS .
+Note that this has ever been the only means to determine alias dereferencing
+within search operations.
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_DESC
+Returns the file descriptor associated to the socket buffer
+of the LDAP handle passed in as 
+.BR ld ;
+.BR outvalue
+must be a 
+.BR "int *" .
+This is a read-only, handle-specific option.
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_DIAGNOSTIC_MESSAGE
+Sets/gets a string containing the error string associated to the LDAP handle.
+This option was formerly known as 
+.BR LDAP_OPT_ERROR_STRING .
+.BR outvalue
+must be a
+.BR "char **" ,
+and the caller is responsible of freeing the returned string by calling
+.BR ldap_memfree (3),
+while
+.BR invalue
+must be a 
+.BR "char *" ;
+the library duplicates the corresponding string.
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_HOST_NAME
+Sets/gets a space-separated list of hosts to be contacted by the library 
+when trying to establish a connection.
+This is now deprecated in favor of
+.BR LDAP_OPT_URI .
+.BR outvalue
+must be a 
+.BR "char **" ,
+and the caller is responsible of freeing the resulting string by calling
+.BR ldap_memfree (3),
+while
+.BR invalue
+must be a 
+.BR "const char *" ;
+the library duplicates the corresponding string.
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_MATCHED_DN
+Sets/gets a string containing the matched DN associated to the LDAP handle.
+.BR outvalue
+must be a
+.BR "char **" ,
+and the caller is responsible of freeing the returned string by calling
+.BR ldap_memfree (3),
+while
+.BR invalue
+must be a 
+.BR "const char *" ;
+the library duplicates the corresponding string.
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_NETWORK_TIMEOUT
+Sets/gets the network timeout value after which
+.BR poll (2)/ select (2) 
+following a 
+.BR connect (2) 
+returns in case of no activity.
+.B outvalue
+must be a 
+.BR "struct timeval **"
+(the caller has to free
+.BR *outvalue ) ,
+and
+.B invalue
+must be a 
+.BR "const struct timeval *" .
+They cannot be NULL. Using a struct with seconds set to \-1 results
+in an infinite timeout, which is the default.
+This option is OpenLDAP specific.
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION
+Sets/gets the protocol version.
+.BR outvalue
+and
+.BR invalue
+must be 
+.BR "int *" .
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_REFERRAL_URLS

+.BR outvalue
+must be a
+.BR "char ***" ,
+and the caller is responsible of freeing the returned string by calling
+.BR ldap_memvfree (3),
+while
+.BR invalue
+must be a NULL-terminated
+.BR "char *const *" ;
+the library duplicates the corresponding string.
+This option is OpenLDAP specific.
+.TP

+.BR "int *" .
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_SERVER_CONTROLS
+Sets/gets the server-side controls to be used for all operations.
+This is now deprecated as modern LDAP C API provides replacements

+.BR ldap_search_ext (3),
+.BR ldap_add_ext (3),
+.BR ldap_modify_ext (3)
+and so on.
+.BR outvalue
+must be 
+.BR "LDAPControl ***" ,
+and the caller is responsible of freeing the returned controls, if any,
+by calling 
+.BR ldap_controls_free (3),
+while
+.BR invalue

+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_SESSION_REFCNT
+Returns the reference count associated with the LDAP handle passed in as
+.BR ld ;

+This is a read-only, handle-specific option.
+This option is OpenLDAP specific.
+.TP
+.B LDAP_OPT_SIZELIMIT
+Sets/gets the value that defines the maximum number of entries
+to be returned by a search operation.
+.BR invalue
+must be
+.BR "const int *" ,

+while they may return
+.B LDAP_OPT_ERROR
+to indicate a generic option handling error.
+Occasionally, more specific errors can be returned, like
+.B LDAP_NO_MEMORY
+to indicate a failure in memory allocation.
+.SH NOTES
+The LDAP libraries with the
+.B LDAP_OPT_REFERRALS 
+option set to
+.B LDAP_OPT_ON
+(default value) automatically follow referrals using an anonymous bind.
+Application developers are encouraged to either implement consistent
+referral chasing features, or explicitly disable referral chasing
+by setting that option to
+.BR LDAP_OPT_OFF .
+.P
+The protocol version used by the library defaults to LDAPv2 (now historic),
+which corresponds to the
+.B LDAP_VERSION2
+macro.
+Application developers are encouraged to explicitly set
+.B LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION
+to LDAPv3, using the 
+.B LDAP_VERSION3
+macro, or to allow users to select the protocol version.
