SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsasl [ library ... ]
#include <sasl/sasl.h>
int sasl_listmech(sasl_conn_t *conn, const char *user, const char *prefix,
const char *sep, const char *suffix, const char **result,
unsigned *plen,int *pcount);
DESCRIPTION
The sasl_listmech() interface returns a string listing the SASL names
of all the mechanisms available to the specified user. This call is
typically given to the client through a capability command or initial
server response. Client applications need this list so that they know
what mechanisms the server supports.
PARAMETERS
conn The SASL context for this connection user restricts the mech‐
anism list to those mechanisms available to the user. This
parameter is optional.
user Restricts security mechanisms to those available to that
user. The value of user may be NULL, and it is not used if
called by the client application.
prefix Appended to the beginning of result.
sep Appended between mechanisms.
suffix Appended to the end of result.
result A null-terminated result string. result must be allocated or
freed by the library.
plen The length of the result filled in by the library. The value
of plen may be NULL.
pcount The number of mechanisms available. The value of pcount is
filled in by the library. The value of pcount may be NULL
RETURN VALUESsasl_listmech() returns an integer that corresponds to a SASL error
code.
ERRORS
SASL_OK The call to sasl_listmech() was successful.
