sasl_encodev(3) - Linux man page

Name

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);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.

output contains the encoded data and is allocated/freed by the library.

Return Value

Returns SASL_OK on success. See sasl_errors(3) for meanings of other return codes.
