SYNOPSIS

#include <sasl/sasl.h>


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

DESCRIPTION

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)

RETURN VALUE

SASL callback functions should return SASL return codes. See sasl.h for a complete list. SASL_OK indicates success.
