gss_import_name(_:_:_:_:)
Converts a name in contiguous octet format to the internal name format.
Declaration
func gss_import_name(_ minor_status: UnsafeMutablePointer<OM_uint32>, _ input_name_buffer: gss_buffer_t, _ input_name_type: gss_const_OID?, _ output_name: UnsafeMutablePointer<gss_name_t?>) -> OM_uint32Parameters
- minor_status:
A pointer to the secondary status result that provides additional information in case of failure.
- input_name_buffer:
A buffer holding the octets that represent the name to import.
- input_name_type:
An object identifier that specifies the name type. Use Gss_c_no_oid to request the default for the mechanism.
- output_name:
A pointer the function uses to return the imported name. Release this buffer with a call to Gss_release_name(_:_:) when you are done with it.
Return Value
A status code set to GSS_S_COMPLETE on success. See Function Status for a complete enumeration of status outputs.
Discussion
Use this function to reverse the import procedure carried out with the gss_display_name(_:_:_:_:) function.
