Within the Globus GSI Credential Library, all credential operations require a handle parameter. Currenlty only one operation may be in progress at once per credential handle. This section defines operations to create, modify and destroy GSI Credential handles. Typedef Documentation typedef struct globus_l_gsi_cred_handle_s* globus_gsi_cred_handle_t GSI Credential Handle. A GSI Credential handle keeps track of state relating to a credential. Handles can have immutable attributes associated with them. All credential operations take a credential handle pointer as a parameter. See also: globus_gsi_cred_handle_init(), globus_gsi_cred_handle_destroy(), globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_t Function Documentation globus_result_t globus_gsi_cred_handle_init (globus_gsi_cred_handle_t *handle, globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_thandle_attrs) Initializes a credential handle to be used credential handling functions. Takes a set of handle attributes that are immutable to the handle. The handle attributes are only pointed to by the handle, so the lifetime of the attributes needs to be as long as that of the handle. Parameters: handle The handle to be initialized handle_attrs The immutable attributes of the handle Returns: GLOBUS_SUCCESS or an error captured in a globus_result_t globus_result_t globus_gsi_cred_handle_destroy (globus_gsi_cred_handle_thandle) Destroys the credential handle.

Parameters: handle The handle on which to set the key. key The private key to set the handle's key to.
