gsasl_client_c...tication_id_set(3)

📦 version 1.10.0, in ubuntu jammy

✨ gsasl_client_callback_authentication_id_set — the glow-up guide ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the gsasl manual 💖 this one's a lil page about one specific function, and yes it's deprecated, we'll get to that, don't spiral.

🌸 NAME 🌸

gsasl_client_callback_authentication_id_set — it's an API function 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <gsasl.h>

void gsasl_client_callback_authentication_id_set(Gsasl * ctx,
       Gsasl_client_callback_authentication_id           cb);

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

  • Gsasl * ctx — the libgsasl handle. your lil main character pointer 🫶
  • Gsasl_client_callback_authentication_id cb — the callback function itself. yes the whole type name is that long, we don't make the rules 💀

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

So like. You're the client. You need to say who you are (your authentication identity), but you don't wanna hardcode it — you want a function that gets asked when the time comes. This function is where you hand over that callback ✨

Specify the callback function to use in the client to set the authentication identity. 🎀

And the way you get it back later? gsasl_client_callback_authentication_id_get() — iconic little getter/setter duo, we love a matching set 💖

💀 DEPRECATED 💀

bestie. listen. this function is part of the old callback interface. it's giving legacy. it still exists, but it's not the vibe anymore.

The new interface does it differently:

  • use gsasl_callback_set() to set the application callback 🌟
  • use gsasl_callback() or gsasl_property_get() to invoke the callback for certain properties 🌈

so if you're writing something new, go that way instead, fr fr 🙈
