NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsasl	 [ library ... ]
       #include <sasl/sasl.h>

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

DESCRIPTION

       The sasl_errstring() interface is called to convert a SASL return code from an integer into a human readable string.

       You  should  not  used  the  sasl_errstring()  interface  to  extract error code information from SASL. Applications should use sasl_errde-
       tail(3SASL) instead, which contains this error information and more.

       The sasl_errstring() interface supports only i-default and i-local at this time.

PARAMETERS

       saslerr	       The error number to be translated.

       langlist        A comma-separated list of languages. See RFC 1766. If thelanglist  parameter  has  aNULL  value,  the  default  language,i-
		       default, is used.

       outlang	       The language actually used. The outlang parameter can be NULL. The returned error string is in UTF-8.

RETURN VALUES

       sasl_errstring() returns the string that describes the error that occurred, or NULL, if there was an error retrieving it.

NAME

       sasl_auxprop_request - request auxialliary properties from SASL

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsasl	 [ library ... ]
       #include <sasl/sasl.h>

       int sasl_auxprop_request(sasl_conn_t *conn, const char **propnames);

DESCRIPTION

       The  sasl_auxprop_request()  interface  requests that the SASL library obtain properties form any auxialiary property plugins that might be
       installed, for example, the user's home directory from an LDAP server. The lookup occurs just after username canonicalization is  complete.
       Therefore, the request should be made before the call to sasl_server_start(3SASL), but after the call to sasl_server_new(3SASL).

PARAMETERS

       conn	       The sasl_conn_t for which the request is being made

       propnames       A  null-terminated  array  of property names to request. This array must persist until a call to sasl_dispose(3SASL) on the
		       sasl_conn_t.

ERRORS

       sasl_auxprop_request() returns SASL_OK upon success. See sasl_errors(3SASL) for a discussion of other SASL error codes.
