sasl_errstring(3) - Linux man page

Name

SASL return code to a human-readable form

Synopsis

#include <sasl/sasl.h>
const char * sasl_errstring(int saslerr,                     const char * langlist,
                    const char ** outlang);

Description

sasl_usererr is called to convert a SASL return code (an integer) into a human readable string. At this time the only language available is american english written by programmers (aka gobbledygook). Note that a server should call sasl_usererr on a return code first if the string is going to be sent to the client.

saslerr specifies the error number to convert.

langlist is currently unused; Use NULL.

outlang specifies the desired RFC 1766 language for output. NULL defaults to "en-us," currently the only supported language.

It should be noted that this function is not the recommended means of extracting error code information from SASL, instead application should use sasl_errdetail(3), which contains this information (and more)

Return Value
