slapi_dn_normalize()

Edit online

slapi_dn_normalize() converts a distinguished name (DN) to canonical format. It means no leading or trailing spaces, no spaces between components, and no spaces around the equals sign.

Note: A variable that is passed in as the DN argument is also converted in-place, therefore this API is deprecated. See slapi_dn_normalize_v3().

For example, for the following DN,

cn = John Doe, ou = Engineering , o = Darius

the function returns:

cn=john doe,ou=engineering,o=darius

Syntax

#include "slapi-plugin.h"
char *slapi_dn_normalize( char *dn );

Parameters

dn: The DN that you want to normalize.

Returns

The normalized DN.
