sasl_client_init - SASL client authentication initialization¶
Synopsis¶
#include <sasl/sasl.h>
int sasl_client_init(const sasl_callback_t *callbacks )
Description¶
sasl_client_init initializes SASL.
It must be called before any calls to sasl_client_start(3). This call initializes all SASL client drivers (e.g. authentication mechanisms). These are usually found in the /usr/lib/sasl2 directory but the directory may be overridden with the SASL_PATH environment variable.
Return Value¶
SASL callback functions should return SASL return codes.
See sasl.h for a complete list. SASL_OK indicates success.
The following return codes indicate errors and should either be handled or the authentication session should be quit:
SASL_BADVERS: Mechanism version mismatchSASL_BADPARAM: Error in config fileSASL_NOMEM: Not enough memory to complete operation
