Cyrus SASL documentation
Synopsis
#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 ** output,
                unsigned * outputlen);Description
sasl_encode encodes data to be sent to be sent to a remote host who we’ve had a successful authentication session with. If there is a negotiated security the data in signed/encrypted and the output should be sent without modification to the remote host. If there is no security layer the output is identical to the input.
sasl_encodev does the same, but for a struct iovec instead of a character buffer.
- int sasl_encode(sasl_conn_t *conn,
- const char * input,
- unsigned inputlen,
- const char ** output,
- unsigned * outputlen);
- Parameters
- conn – is the SASL connection context
- output – contains the decoded data and is allocated/freed by the library.
- outputlen – length of output.
 
 - int sasl_encodev(sasl_conn_t *conn, - const struct iovec * invec, - unsigned numiov, - const char ** output, - unsigned * outputlen); - Parameters
- conn – is the SASL connection context
- output – contains the decoded data and is allocated/freed by the library.
- outputlen – length of output.
 
 
Return Value
SASL callback functions should return SASL return codes. See sasl.h for a complete list. SASL_OK indicates success.
Other return codes indicate errors and should be handled.
