SASL_ERRSTRING(3) Cyrus SASL SASL_ERRSTRING(3)
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 integer) into a human readable string. At this time the only language available is American English. Note that if the string is going to be sent to the client, a server should call sasl_usererr(3) on a return code first.
Parameters
o saslerr - specifies the error number to convert.
o langlist - is currently unused; Use NULL.
o outlang - specifies the desired RFC 1766 language for output. NULL defaults to "en-us"; 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, US-ASCII is used.
