sasl_encode64(3SASL) Simple Authentication Security Layer Library Functions sasl_encode64(3SASL) NAME
sasl_encode64 - encode base64 string SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsasl [ library ... ] #include <sasl/saslutil.h> int sasl_encode64(const char *in, unsigned inlen, char *out, unsigned outmax, unsigned *outlen); DESCRIPTION
Use the sasl_encode64() interface to convert an octet string into a base64 string. This routine is useful for SASL profiles that use base64, such as the IMAP (IMAP4) and POP (POP_AUTH) profiles. The output is null-terminated. If outlen is non-NULL, the length is placed in the outlen. PARAMETERS
in Input data. inlen The length of the input data. out The output data. The value of out can be the same as in. However, there must be enough space. outlen The length of the actual output. outmax The maximum size of the output buffer. RETURN VALUES
sasl_encode64() returns an integer that corresponds to a SASL error code. ERRORS
SASL_OK The call to sasl_encode64() was successful. SASL_BUFOVER The output buffer was too small. ATTRIBUTES

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
