sasl_encode - Encode data for transport to authenticated host
Synopsis
#include <sasl/sasl.h>
int sasl_encode(sasl_conn_t *conn,
const char * input,
unsigned inputlen,
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.
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.
