sasl_setprop(3)                                     SASL man pages                                    sasl_setprop(3)



NAME
       sasl_setprop - Set a SASL property

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sasl/sasl.h>


       int sasl_setprop(sasl_conn_t *conn,
                       int propnum,
                       const void * pvalue)


DESCRIPTION
       sasl_setprop  sets the value of a SASL property. For example an application should tell the SASL library about
       any external negotiated security layer (i.e. TLS).

       conn is the SASL connection object.  propnum is the identifier for the property requested and pvalue  contains
       a  pointer  to  the data. It is the applications job to make sure this type is correct. This is an easy way to
       crash a program.

       SASL_AUTH_EXTERNAL - external authentication ID (const char *)
       SASL_SSF_EXTERNAL -  external SSF active -- (sasl_ssf_t)
       SASL_DEFUSERREALM - user realm (const char *)
       SASL_SEC_PROPS  -    sasl_security_properties_t (may be freed after call)
       SASL_IPLOCALPORT -   string describing the local ip and port in the form
                            "a.b.c.d;p", or "e:f:g:h:i:j:k:l;port"
       SASL_IPREMOTEPORT -  string describing the remote ip and port in the form
                            "a.b.c.d;p", or "e:f:g:h:i:j:k:l;port"


RETURN VALUE
       Returns SASL_OK on success. SASL error code on failure.
