sasl_decode(3SASL) Simple Authentication Security Layer Library Functions sasl_decode(3SASL) NAME
sasl_decode - decode data received SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsasl [ library ... ] #include <sasl/sasl.h> int sasl_decode(sasl_conn_t *conn, const char *input, unsigned inputlen, const char **output, unsigned *outputlen); DESCRIPTION
Use the sasl_decode() interface to decode data received. After authentication, call this function on all data received. The data is decoded from encrypted or signed form to plain data. If no security lay is negotiated, the output is identical to the input. Do not give sasl_decode() more data than the negotiated maxbufsize. See sasl_getprop(3SASL). sasl_decode() can complete successfully although the value of outputlen is zero. If this is the case, wait for more data and call sasl_decode() again. PARAMETERS
conn The SASL connection context. input Data received. inputlen The length of input output The decoded data. output must be allocated or freed by the library. outputlen The length of output. RETURN VALUES
sasl_decode() returns an integer that corresponds to a SASL error code. ERRORS
SASL_OK The call to sasl_decode() was successful. See sasl_errors(3SASL) for information on SASL error codes. ATTRIBUTES

sasl_encode(3SASL) Simple Authentication Security Layer Library Functions sasl_encode(3SASL) NAME
sasl_encode, sasl_encodev - encode data for transport to an authenticated host SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsasl [ library ... ] #include <sasl/sasl.h> int sasl_encode(sasl_conn_t *conn, const char *input, unsigned inputlen, const char **output, unsigned *outputlen); int sasl_encodev(sasl_conn_t *conn, const struct iovec *invec, unsigned numiov, const char *outputlen); DESCRIPTION
The sasl_encode() interface encodes data to be sent to a remote host for which there has been a successful authentication session. If there is a negotiated security, the data is signed or encrypted, and the output is sent without modification to the remote host. If there is no security layer, the output is identical to the input. The sasl_encodev() interface functions the same as the sasl_encode() interface, but operates on a struct iovec instead of a character buf- fer. PARAMETERS
conn The SASL connection context. input Data. inputlen input length. output The encoded data. output must be allocated or freed by the library. outputlen The length of output. invec A pointer to set of iovec structures. numiov The number of iovec structures in the invec set. RETURN VALUES
sasl_encode() returns an integer that corresponds to a SASL error code. ERRORS
SASL_OK The call to sasl_encode() or sasl_encodev()was successful. See sasl_errors(3SASL) for information on SASL error codes. ATTRIBUTES
