Quanah,
Thanks for your response! I got it.
but why openldap will not skip the insert when the entry already existed. I
found some code in openldap already handle like this, anyway, it could take
some effort.
rc = mdb_cursor_put( mc, &key, data, MDB_NODUPDATA|MDB_APPEND|MDB_MULTIPLE );
if ( rc ) {
if ( rc == MDB_KEYEXIST ) {
rc = 0;
continue;
}
rc = -1;
break;
}
Thanks,
Eric.
