gss_indicate_mechs -- Allow an application to determine which security mechanisms are available 



C Prototype 

OM_uint32 gss_indicate_mechs(
      OM_uint32           minor_status,
      gss_OID_set         mech_set );

Arguments 

minor_status
(output)
 An implementation-specific status code.
mech_set (output) A set of implementation-supported mechanisms. The returned gss_OID_set value will be a dynamically allocated OID set that should be released by the caller after use with a call to gss_release_oid_set.

Description 

This routine allows an application to determine which underlying security mechanisms are available.

Return Values 

This routine returns the following GSS status code:

GSS_S_COMPLETE
