✨ NAME ✨

gsasl_server_start — it's an API function, bestie 💅 (the gsasl manual's got it filed under that name, just so you know where you are)

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <gsasl.h>

int gsasl_server_start(Gsasl * ctx, const char * mech, Gsasl_session **
sctx);

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • Gsasl * ctx — your libgsasl handle. the whole context, the main character 🫶
  • const char * mech — the name of the SASL mechanism. just the name, okay?
  • Gsasl_session ** sctx — a pointer to your server handle. yes, a pointer to it — she gets written into 💖

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so this function initiates a server SASL authentication. that's her whole job, and she ate ✨

💀 the rule, no cap: this function must be called before any other gsasl_server_*() function is called. before. literally before all of them. don't be out here calling the other ones first, i'm begging 🙈

Return value: she returns GSASL_OK if it all worked out, or an error code if it didn't 😭
