LDAP *ld;
LDAPControl **ctrls;
unsigned long *returnCode;
char **attribute;
DESCRIPTION
This function is used to parse the results returned in a search opera-
tion that uses a server-side sort control.
It takes a null terminated array of LDAPControl structures usually ob-
tained by a call to the ldap_parse_result function. A returncode which
points to the sort control result code,and an array of LDAPControl
structures that list the client controls to use with the search. The
function also takes an out parameter attribute and if the sort opera-
tion fails, the server may return a string that indicates the first at-
tribute in the sortKey list that caused the failure. If this parameter
is NULL, no string is returned. If a string is returned, the memory
should be freed by calling the ldap_memfree function.
