Functions for Internal Operations and Plug-In
Callback
This section contains reference information on routines for internal operations and
plug-in callbacks—these functions can be used for internal operations based on DN
as well as on unique ID. These functions should be used by all new plug-ins and
preferably old plug-ins should be changed to use them to take advantage of new
plug-in configuration capabilities and to use an extensible interface.
