NAME
gss_release_buffer - API function
SYNOPSIS
#include <gss.h>
OM_uint32 gss_release_buffer(OM_uint32 * minor_status, gss_buffer_t
buffer);
ARGUMENTS
OM_uint32 * minor_status
(integer, modify) Mechanism specific status code.
gss_buffer_t buffer
(buffer, modify) The storage associated with the buffer
will be deleted. The gss_buffer_desc object will not be
freed,
but its length field will be zeroed.
DESCRIPTION
Free storage associated with a buffer. The storage must have been
allocated by a GSS-API routine. In addition to freeing the associated
storage, the routine will zero the length field in the descriptor to
which the buffer parameter refers, and implementations are encouraged
to additionally set the pointer field in the descriptor to NULL. Any
buffer object returned by a GSS-API routine may be passed to
gss_release_buffer (even if there is no storage associated with the
buffer).
RETURN VALUE
‘GSS_S_COMPLETE‘: Successful completion.
