NAME

sasl_encode - Cyrus SASL documentation

SYNOPSIS

#include <sasl/sasl.h> int sasl_encode(sasl_conn_t *conn, const char * input, unsigned inputlen, const char ** output, unsigned * outputlen); int sasl_encodev(sasl_conn_t *conn, const struct iovec * invec, unsigned numiov, const char ** output, unsigned * outputlen);

DESCRIPTION

sasl_encode encodes data to be sent to be sent to a remote host who we've had a successful authentication session with. If there is a negotiated security the data in signed/encrypted and the output should be sent without modification to the remote host. If there is no security layer the output is identical to the input. sasl_encodev does the same, but for a struct iovec instead of a character buffer. int sasl_encode(sasl_conn_t *conn, const char * input, unsigned inputlen, const char ** output, unsigned * outputlen); Parameters o conn - is the SASL connection context o output - contains the decoded data and is allocated/freed by the library. o outputlen - length of output. int sasl_encodev(sasl_conn_t *conn, const struct iovec * invec, unsigned numiov, const char ** output, unsigned * outputlen); Parameters o conn - is the SASL connection context o output - contains the decoded data and is allocated/freed by the library. o outputlen - length of output.

RETURN VALUE

SASL callback functions should return SASL return codes. See sasl.h for a complete list. SASL_OK indicates success. Other return codes indicate errors and should be handled.
