SASL_CLIENT_INIT(3) | Cyrus SASL | SASL_CLIENT_INIT(3) |
NAME¶
sasl_client_init - Cyrus SASL documentation
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <sasl/sasl.h> int sasl_client_init(const sasl_callback_t *callbacks )
DESCRIPTION¶
sasl_client_init initializes SASL.
It must be called before any calls to sasl_client_start(3). This call initializes all SASL client drivers (e.g. authentication mechanisms). These are usually found in the /usr/lib/sasl2 directory but the directory may be overridden with the SASL_PATH environment variable.
RETURN VALUE¶
SASL callback functions should return SASL return codes. See sasl.h for a complete list. SASL_OK indicates success.
The following return codes indicate errors and should either be handled or the authentication session should be quit:
- SASL_BADVERS: Mechanism version mismatch
- SASL_BADPARAM: Error in config file
- SASL_NOMEM: Not enough memory to complete operation
