SASL_GETOPT_T(3)		   Cyrus SASL			SASL_GETOPT_T(3)

NAME
     sasl_getopt_t - Cyrus SASL documentation

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sasl/sasl.h>

     int sasl_getopt_t(void *context,
		    const char *plugin_name,
		    const char *option,
		    const char ** result,
		    unsigned * len);

DESCRIPTION
     int sasl_getopt_t(void *context,

     const char *plugin_name,

     const char *option,

     const char ** result,

     unsigned * len);
	    sasl_getopt_t  is  used  to retrieve an option, often mechanism spe-
	    cific, from the application. An example of this is	requesting  what
	    KERBEROS_V4 srvtab file to use.

	    Parameters

		   * context a is the SASL connection context

		   * plugin_name a is the plugin this value is for.

		   * option  a is a string representing the option. A common op-
		     tion that all server  applications  should  handle  is  the
		     method   for   checking   plaintext   passwords.	See  the
		     administrators guide for a full description of this option.

	    Memory management of options supplied by the getopt callback  should
	    be	done  by the application, however, any requested option must re-
	    main available until the callback is no longer valid.  That is, when
	    sasl_dispose(3) is called for a  the  connection  it  is  associated
	    with,  or  sasl_done(3) is called for global callbacks.

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.
