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
       int sasl_decode(sasl_conn_t *conn,

       const char * input,

       unsigned	inputlen,

       const char ** output,

       unsigned	* outputlen);
	      sasl_decode decodes   data  received.  After  successful authen-
	      tication	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

		      conn  is	the SASL connection context

		      output	contains  the  decoded	data  and   is	 allo-
		       cated/freed by the library.

		      outputlen  length of output.

	      One  should not give  sasl_decode	 more  data  than  the negoti-
	      ated 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.
