LDAP_SORT(3)             Library Functions Manual            LDAP_SORT(3)

NAME         top

       ldap_sort_entries, ldap_sort_values, ldap_sort_strcasecmp - LDAP
       sorting routines (deprecated)

LIBRARY         top

       OpenLDAP LDAP (libldap, -lldap)

DESCRIPTION         top

       The ldap_sort_entries(), ldap_sort_values(), and
       ldap_sort_strcasecmp() are deprecated.

       Deprecated interfaces generally remain in the library.  The macro
       LDAP_DEPRECATED can be defined to a non-zero value (e.g.,
       -DLDAP_DEPRECATED=1) when compiling program designed to use
       deprecated interfaces.  It is recommended that developers writing
       new programs, or updating old programs, avoid use of deprecated
       interfaces.  Over time, it is expected that documentation (and,
       eventually, support) for deprecated interfaces to be eliminated.
