SASL_GETSIMPLE_T(3)

✨ SASL_GETSIMPLE_T ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Cyrus SASL</c> manual for sasl_getsimple_t — yes that's the whole name, it's giving "I didn't want a long name so I made it weird" 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <sasl/sasl.h>

int sasl_getsimple_t(void *context,
                    int id,
                    const char ** result,
                    unsigned * len);

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

int sasl_getsimple_t(void *context,

int id,

const char ** result,

unsigned * len);

so like. sasl_getsimple_t is your little errand-runner that goes and grabs the simple things from the application. and by "simple things" I mean, in practice: the authentication name, the authorization name, and the realm. that's it. that's the vibe. 🎀

Parameters (aka the cast of characters) 🫶

• context — the SASL connection context. the lil home base for this whole convo.
• id — tells you which value is being asked for rn. possible values include:
  • SASL_CB_USER — client user identity to login as 👑
  • SASL_CB_AUTHNAME — client authentication name
  • SASL_CB_LANGUAGE — comma-separated list of RFC 1766 languages 🌈
  • SASL_CB_CNONCE — client-nonce (for testing mostly) 🙈
• result — the value of the item requested. there it is. the thing. ⭐
• len — lenth of the result. (yes, "lenth". that's what the docs say. we do not fix it. we respect it. 😭)

---

💖 RETURN VALUE 💖

SASL callback functions should return SASL return codes — go peek at sasl.h for the complete list, no cap. SASL_OK means success, and success means slay. 🔥
