sasl_listmech - Cyrus SASL documentation

SYNOPSIS

#include <sasl/sasl.h>
int sasl_listmech(sasl_conn_t *conn, const char *user, const char *prefix, const char *sep, const char *suffix, const char **result, unsigned *plen, int *pcount);

DESCRIPTION

int sasl_listmech(sasl_conn_t *conn,
const char *user,
const char *prefix,
const char *sep,
const char *suffix,
const char **result,
unsigned *plen,
int *pcount);
sasl_listmech returns a string listing the SASL names of all the mechanisms available to the specified user. This is typically given to the client through a capability command or initial server response. Client applications need this list so that they know what mechanisms the server supports.
Parameters
conn – the SASL context for this connection
user – (optional) restricts the mechanism list to only those available to the user.
prefix – appended to beginning of result
sep – appended between mechanisms
suffix – appended to end of result
result – NULL terminated result string (allocated/freed by library)
plen – length of result filled in by library. May be NULL
pcount – Number of mechanisms available (filled in by library). May be NULL



EXAMPLE

sasl_listmech(conn,NULL,"(",",",")",&mechlist,NULL,NULL);
 
may give the following string as a result:
(ANONYMOUS,KERBEROS_V4,DIGEST‐MD5)


RETURN VALUE

SASL functions should return SASL return codes. See sasl.h for a complete list. SASL_OK indicates success.
