NAME
btohex, bsltoh, bcleartoh, bsltoh_r, bcleartoh_r, h_alloc, h_free - convert binary label to hexadecimal SYNOPSIS
cc [flag...] file... -ltsol [library...] #include <tsol/label.h> char *bsltoh(const m_label_t *label); char *bcleartoh(const m_label_t *clearance); char *bsltoh_r(const m_label_t *label, char *hex); char *bcleartoh_r(const m_label_t *clearance, char *hex); char *h_alloc(const unsigned char type); void h_free(char *hex); DESCRIPTION
These functions convert binary labels into hexadecimal strings that represent the internal value. The bsltoh() and bsltoh_r() functions convert a binary sensitivity label into a string of the form: [0xsensitivity_label_hexadecimal_value] The bcleartoh() and bcleartoh_r() functions convert a binary clearance into a string of the form: 0xclearance_hexadecimal_value The h_alloc() function allocates memory for the hexadecimal value type for use by bsltoh_r() and bcleartoh_r(). Valid values for type are: SUN_SL_ID label is a binary sensitivity label. SUN_CLR_ID label is a binary clearance. The h_free() function frees memory allocated by h_alloc(). RETURN VALUES
These functions return a pointer to a string that contains the result of the translation, or (char *)0 if the parameter is not of the required type. ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Interface Stability |Obsolete | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |MT-Level |MT-Safe with exceptions | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ The bsltoh(), bcleartoh(), bsltoh_r(), bcleartoh_r(), h_alloc(), and h_free() functions are Obsolete. Use the label_to_str(3TSOL) function instead. The bsltoh() and bcleartoh() functions share the same statically allocated string storage. They are not MT-Safe. Subsequent calls to any of these functions will overwrite that string with the newly translated string. The bsltoh_r() and bcleartoh_r() functions should be used in multithreaded applications.

NAME
bltocolor, bltocolor_r - get character-coded color name of label SYNOPSIS
cc [flag...] file... -ltsol [library...] #include <tsol/label.h> char *bltocolor(const m_label_t *label); char *bltocolor_r(const m_label_t *label, const int size, char *color_name); DESCRIPTION
The bltocolor() and bltocolor_r() functions get the character-coded color name associated with the binary label label. The calling process must have PRIV_SYS_TRANS_LABEL in its set of effective privileges to get color names of labels that dominate the cur- rent process's sensitivity label. RETURN VALUES
The bltocolor() function returns a pointer to a statically allocated string that contains the character-coded color name specified for the label or returns (char *)0 if, for any reason, no character-coded color name is available for this binary label. The bltocolor_r() function returns a pointer to the color_name string which contains the character-coded color name specified for the label or returns (char *)0 if, for any reason, no character-coded color name is available for this binary label. color_name must provide for a string of at least size characters. FILES
/etc/security/tsol/label_encodings The label encodings file contains the classification names, words, constraints, and values for the defined labels of this system. ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Interface Stability |Obsolete | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |MT-Level |MT-Safe with exceptions | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ These functions are obsolete and retained for ease of porting. They might be removed in a future Solaris Trusted Extensions release. Use the label_to_str(3TSOL) function instead. The bltocolor() function returns a pointer to a statically allocated string. Subsequent calls to it will overwrite that string with a new character-coded color name. It is not MT-Safe. The bltocolor_r() function should be used in multithreaded applications. SEE ALSO
label_to_str(3TSOL), libtsol(3LIB), attributes(5) NOTES
The functionality described on this manual page is available only if the system is configured with Trusted Extensions. If label includes a specified word or words, the character-coded color name associated with the first word specified in the label encodings file is returned. Otherwise, if no character-coded color name is specified for label, the first character-coded color name specified in the label encodings file with the same classification as the binary label is returned.
