NAME

       sasl_errstring - Translate a SASL return code to a human-readable form

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sasl/sasl.h>

       const char * sasl_errstring(int saslerr,
			      const char * langlist,
			      const char ** outlang);

DESCRIPTION

       sasl_usererr is called to convert a SASL return code (an integer) into a human readable string. At this time the only language available is
       american english written by programmers (aka gobbledygook).  Note that a server should call sasl_usererr on a  return  code  first  if  the
       string is going to be sent to the client.

       saslerr specifies the error number to convert.

       langlist is currently unused; Use NULL.

       outlang specifies the desired RFC 1766 language for output.  NULL defaults to "en-us," currently the only supported language.

       It  should  be  noted  that  this function is not the recommended means of extracting error code information from SASL, instead application
       should use sasl_errdetail(3), which contains this information (and more)

RETURN VALUE

       Returns the string.  If langlist is NULL, US-ASCII is used.

CONFORMING TO

       RFC 4422
