int sasl_client_init(const  sasl_callback_t *callbacks )

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.

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 mismatch
• SASL_BADPARAM: Error in config file
• SASL_NOMEM: Not enough memory to complete operation
