NAME

       gss_add_oid_set_member - add an object identifier to an object identifier set

SYNOPSIS

       cc -flag ...  file ...-lgss [library ...]
       #include <gssapi/gssapi.h>

       OM_uint32 gss_add_oid_set_member(OM_uint32  *minor_status, const gss_OID  member_oid, gss_OID_set  *oid_set);

DESCRIPTION

       The  gss_add_oid_set_member()  function	adds an object identifier to an object identifier set. You should use this function in conjunction
       with gss_create_empty_oid_set(3GSS) when constructing a set of mechanism OIDs for input to gss_acquire_cred(3GSS).  The	oid_set  parameter
       must refer to an OID-set created by GSS-API, that is, a set returned by gss_create_empty_oid_set(3GSS).

       The  GSS-API  creates  a copy of the member_oid and inserts this copy into the set, expanding the storage allocated to the OID-set elements
       array, if necessary.  The function may add the new member OID anywhere within the elements array, and the GSS-API  verifies  that  the  new
       member_oid is not already contained within the elements array. If the member_oid is already present, the oid_set should remain unchanged.

PARAMETERS

       The parameter descriptions for gss_add_oid_set_member() follow:

       minor_status    A mechanism specific status code.

       member_oid      Object identifier to be copied into the set.

       oid_set	       Set in which the object identifier should be inserted.

ERRORS

       The gss_add_oid_set_member() function may return the following status codes:

       GSS_S_COMPLETE	       Successful completion.

       GSS_S_FAILURE	       The  underlying	mechanism  detected an error for which no specific GSS status code is defined.	The mechanism-spe-
			       cific status code reported by means of the minor_status parameter details the error condition.

NAME

       gss_oid_to_str - convert an OID to a string

SYNOPSIS

       cc -flag ...  file...-lgss [library ...]
       #include <gssapi/gssapi.h>

       gss_oid_to_str(OM_uint32 *minor_status, const gss_OID *oid, gss_buffer_toid_str);

DESCRIPTION

       The  gss_oid_to_str()  function	converts  a GSS-API OID structure to a string. You can use the function to convert the name of a mechanism
       from an OID to a simple string. This function is a convenience function, as is its complementary function, gss_str_to_oid(3GSS).

       If an OID must be created, use gss_create_empty_oid_set(3GSS) and gss_add_oid_set_member(3GSS) to create it.  OIDs created in this way must
       be  released  with gss_release_oid_set(3GSS). However, it is strongly suggested that applications use the default GSS-API mechanism instead
       of creating an OID for a specific mechanism.

PARAMETERS

       The parameter descriptions for gss_oid_to_str() are as follows:

       minor_status    Status code returned by underlying mechanism.

       oid	       GSS-API OID structure to convert.

       oid_str	       String to receive converted OID.

ERRORS

       gss_oid_to_str() returns one of the following status codes:

       GSS_S_CALL_INACCESSIBLE_READ    A required input parameter could not be read.

       GSS_S_CALL_INACCESSIBLE_WRITE   A required output parameter could not be written.

       GSS_S_COMPLETE		       Successful completion.

       GSS_S_FAILURE		       The underlying mechanism detected an error for which no specific GSS status code is  defined.   The  mecha-
				       nism-specific status code reported by means of the minor_status	parameter details the error condition.

WARNINGS

       This  function  is  included for compatibility only with programs using earlier versions of the GSS-API and should not be used for new pro-
       grams. Other implementations of the GSS-API might not support this function, so portable programs should not rely on  it.   Sun	might  not
       continue to support this function.
