sasl_decode(3) Cyrus SASL sasl_decode(3)
NAME
sasl_decode - Cyrus SASL documentation
SYNOPSIS
#include <sasl/sasl.h>
int sasl_decode(sasl_conn_t *conn,
const char * input,
unsigned inputlen,
const char ** output,
unsigned * outputlen);
DESCRIPTION
sasl_decode(3) *conn,
const char * input,
unsigned inputlen,
const char ** output,
unsigned * outputlen);
sasl_decode decodes data received. After successful
authentication this function should be called on all data
received. It decodes the data from encrypted or signed form to
plain data. If there was no security layer negotiated the output
is identical to the input.
Parameters
o conn - is the SASL connection context
o output - contains the decoded data and is allocated/freed
by the library.
o outputlen - length of output.
One should not give sasl_decode more data than the negotiated
maxbufsize (see sasl_getprop(3)).
Note that sasl_decode can succeed and outputlen can be zero.
If this is the case simply wait for more data and call
sasl_decode again.
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.
