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

                     • saslerr – specifies the error number to convert.

                     • langlist – is currently unused; Use NULL.

                     • 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.
