last 4 digits of a user’s phone number and assign its value to the 
MeetingPlace extension attribute. The attribute mapping for this 
task might appear as:

This example states that the extension number attribute of the 
MeetingPlace profile will be synchronized with the value of the 
characters after the first occurrence of the "-", from the right, of 
the phone number attribute. So, if an entry on your corporate 
directory has a ’770-649-1865’ phone number value, ’1865’ will 
become the MeetingPlace profile extension number value. Of 
course, the MetaLink agreement, which should include other 
meaningful attribute mappings to ensure the correct entries are 
synchronized, must be run before synchronization will occur.

To use a plug-in function, it must be registered in the 
configuration file. The standard syntax for registering a plug-in 
function is Plug-InFunction = Library, EntryPoint, [OptPar], 
where

Plug-InFunction is the name of the plug-in function

Library is the name of the shared library that contains the 

function

EntryPoint is the name of the entry point to the function in 

the shared library

OptPar is the optional parameter, a literal string, that will be 

passed to the function each time it is called

Chapter 6 details the process of registering and using plug-in 
functions. For a list of plug-in functions and their optional and 
required parameters, entry points, and libraries, see Appendix B.
