The mldap_get_attrib_value_ex function retrieves the value of the specified attribute, for the specified session. You can specify either the index of the attribute or the name of the attribute. By default, if nothing is specified, the function returns the value of the first attribute. The optional offset argument, lets you get an attribute value other than the first. For example, if an attribute has multiple values, an offset of 0 would return the first value, an offset of 1 would return the second, etc.

This function is for use with multiple sessions. For global or single sessions, use the mldap_get_attrib_value function, which leaves out the session identifier.

This function is not recorded. Add it if needed when enhancing your script.

Return Values
