NAME

sasl_errstring - Cyrus SASL documentation

SYNOPSIS

#include <sasl/sasl.h> const char * sasl_errstring(int saslerr, const char * langlist, const char ** outlang);

DESCRIPTION

const char * sasl_errstring(int saslerr, const char * langlist, const char ** outlang); sasl_errstring is called to convert a SASL return code (an inte- ger) into a human readable string. At this time the only lan- guage available is American English. Note that if the string is going to be sent to the client, a server should call sasl_user- err(3) on a return code first. Parameters o saslerr a specifies the error number to convert. o langlist a is currently unused; Use NULL. o outlang a specifies the desired RFC 1766 language for output. NULL defaults to aenausa; currently the only supported language. This function is not the recommended means of extracting error code information from SASL, instead application should use sasl_errdetail(3), which contains this information (and more).

RETURN VALUE

Returns the string. If langlist is NULL, USaASCII is used.
