✨ gsasl_server_support_p(3) — the gsasl manual, but make it cute ✨

okay bestie, gather round 💖 this one lives in the gsasl section of the manual (section 3, the library-call girlies 🌸), and it's literally the vibe check for SASL mechanisms. no cap.

🌈 SYNOPSIS

#include <gsasl.h>

int gsasl_server_support_p(Gsasl * ctx, const char * name);

just two args and an int back, she's low maintenance fr 🎀

🫶 ARGUMENTS

  • Gsasl * ctx — your libgsasl handle, bestie. the whole context. she's holding everything.
  • const char * name — the name of the SASL mechanism you're asking about 👑

💅 DESCRIPTION

So the whole job here is: decide whether there is server-side support for a specified mechanism. like, is this mechanism actually available on the server side or are we just dreaming 💭

Return value: returns 1 if the libgsasl server supports the named mechanism, otherwise 0. that's it. one or zero. yes or no. icon behavior, honestly ✨

ngl this is the "do you have it or not" function and she ate. no in-between, no "maybe", just 1 or 0 🙈
