Red Hat DIRECTORY SERVER 7.1 - PLUG-IN PROGRAMMERS Manual page 55

Passing Extra Arguments to Plug-ins
Use the plug-in start function (registered in the initialization function with
using ) to use the custom
slapi_pblock_set() SLAPI_PLUGIN_START_FN
configuration. One of the pblock parameters passed to the start function is the
plug-in entry, as the parameter. The
SLAPI_ADD_TARGET slapi_entry_attr_*
family of functions can be used to get and use these values.
Plug-ins can be dynamically configured at run-time by registering DSE callbacks
for the plug-in entry with .
slapi_config_register_callback()
