gss_duplicate_name(3GSS) Generic Security Services API Library Functions gss_duplicate_name(3GSS)
NAME
gss_duplicate_name - create a copy of an internal name
SYNOPSIS
cc [flag ...] file... -lgss [library ...]
#include <gssapi/gssapi.h>
OM_uint32 gss_duplicate_name(OM_uint32 *minor_status, const gss_name_t src_name, gss_name_t *dest_name);
DESCRIPTION
The gss_duplicate_name() function creates an exact duplicate of the existing internal name src_name. The new dest_name will be independent
of the src_name. The src_name and dest_name must both be released, and the release of one does not affect the validity of the other.
PARAMETERS
The parameter descriptions for gss_duplicate_name() follow:
minor_status A mechanism-specific status code.
src_name Internal name to be duplicated.
dest_name The resultant copy of src_name. Storage associated with this name must be freed by the application after use with
a call to gss_release_name(3GSS).
ERRORS
The gss_duplicate_name() function may return the following status codes:
GSS_S_COMPLETE Successful completion.
GSS_S_BAD_NAME The src_name parameter was ill-formed.
GSS_S_FAILURE The underlying mechanism detected an error for which no specific GSS status code is defined. The mechanism-spe-
cific status code reported by means of the minor_status parameter details the error condition.
