✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int sasl_idle( sasl_conn_t *conn)

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

int sasl_idle(sasl_conn_t *conn)

so here's the tea ☕ — sasl_idle() is the function you call when you've got a little downtime, an idle period if you will, and you wanna let the SASL library or literally any of the mechanisms do whatever precalculation they need to do. it's giving "let me get my ducks in a row while nobody's looking" 🦆✨

Parameters

• conn – bestie, this one can be NULL 💀 and that's actually a whole vibe: passing NULL means you're doing precalculation prior to a connection taking place. iconic behavior honestly 👑

---

🔥 RETURN VALUE 🔥

• returns 1 if action was taken 🫶
• returns 0 if no action was taken 😌

that's it. that's the whole return value. no cap. periodt 💖
