sasl_client_init(3SASL) 		      Simple Authentication Security Layer Library Functions			   sasl_client_init(3SASL)

NAME

       sasl_client_init - initialize SASL client authentication

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsasl	 [ library ... ]
       #include <sasl/sasl.h>

       int sasl_client_init(const sasl_callback_t *callbacks);

DESCRIPTION

       Use  the  sasl_client_init()  interface	to  initialize	SASL.  The  sasl_client_init()	interface  must  be  called  before  any  calls to
       sasl_client_start(3SASL). The call to sasl_client_init() initiallizes all SASL client drivers, for example, authentication mechanisms. SASL
       client drivers are usually found in the /usr/lib/sasl directory.

PARAMETERS

       callbacks    Specifies the base callbacks for all client connections.

RETURN VALUES

       sasl_client_init() returns an integer that corresponds to a SASL error code.

ERRORS

       SASL_OK		The call to sasl_client_init() was successful.

       SASL_BADVERS	There is a mismatch in the mechanism version.

       SASL_BADPARAM	There is an error in the configuration file.

       SASL_NOMEM	There is not enough memory to complete the operation.

       All  other  error  codes  indicate  an  error  situation  that  must  be  handled,  or  the  authentication  session  should  be  quit. See
       sasl_errors(3SASL) for information on SASL error codes.
