Detailed Description

       Send and Receive Security Tokens.

       The functions in this section are used to send and receive GSSAPI tokens using various
       methods. These are used by the Security Context Management functions.

Function Documentation

   int globus_gss_assist_token_get_fd (void * arg, void ** bufp, size_t * sizep)
       Get token from a FILE *. Use a open FILE handle to get a token. This function provides
       parameter types that allow it to be passed to globus_gss_assist_init_sec_context and
       globus_gss_assist_accept_sec_context

       Parameters
           arg the FILE * stream cast to a void pointer
           bufp the resulting token
           sizep the size (number of bytes) read into bufp

       Returns
           0 on success > 0 is internal return < 0 is the -errno

   int globus_gss_assist_token_send_fd (void * arg, void * buf, size_t size)
       Send token via a FILE *. Write a token to the open FILE handle. Will write it with a 4
       byte length. This function provides parameter types that allow it to be passed to
       globus_gss_assist_init_sec_context and globus_gss_assist_accept_sec_context

       Parameters
           arg the FILE * stream to send the token on
           buf the token
           size the size of the token in bytes

       Returns
           0 on success >0 on error <0 on errno error

   int globus_gss_assist_token_send_fd_ex (void * exp, void * buf, size_t size)
       Send a token to a FILE *. Write a token to the open FILE *. This function will look at the
       flag to determine if the length field needs to be written.

       Parameters
           exp the globus_gss_assist_ex variable that holds the FILE * stream and flags to bet
           set
           buf the token buffer to send
           size size of the token buffer

       Returns
           0 on success >0 on error <0 on errno error (-errno)

   int globus_gss_assist_token_send_fd_without_length (void * arg, void * buf, size_t size)
       Send token to a FILE *. Write a token to the open FILE. This function will write it
       without a length, so that the FILE stream only contains GSSAPI tokens.
