NAME
       shisa_principal_update - API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <shisa.h>

       int shisa_principal_update(Shisa * dbh, const char * realm, const char * principal, const Shisa_principal * ph);

ARGUMENTS
       Shisa * dbh Shisa library handle created by shisa().

       const char * realm
		   Name of realm the principal belongs in.

       const char * principal
		   Name of principal to get information on.

       const Shisa_principal * ph
		   Pointer to principal structure with information to store in database.

DESCRIPTION
       Modify  information  stored  for  given PRINCIPALREALM.	Note that it is usually a good idea to only set the fields in ph that you actually
       want to update.	Specifically, first calling shisa_principal_find() to get the current information, then modifying one field,  and  calling
       shisa_principal_update()  is  not  recommended in general, as this will 1) overwrite any modifications made to other fields between the two
       calls (by other processes) and 2) will cause all values to be written again, which may generate more overhead.

RETURN VALUE
       Returns SHISA_OK if successful, SHISA_NO_REALM if the indicated realm does not exist, SHISA_NO_PRINCIPAL if the	indicated  principal  does
       not exist, or an error code.

REPORTING BUGS
