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
