What about passing a SlapReply *, or a specific type?
I'd like to avoid defining an addtional type. But using SlapReply for my purpose would certainly be possible I think. I'll take a look into this.
Passing a pointer to struct, rather that a char**, would save you from reworking the whole API once more, in case you need to pass/want back more elaborate data in the future. Passing a SlapReply* could require twice the effort as soon as your needs diverge from what's available in SlapReply; this could be avoided by adding yet another structure to SlapReply's union for internal purposes, if ever required.
