sasl_encode(10
NAME
  sasl_encode - Encode data for transport to authenticated host

SYNOPSIS
  #include <sasl/sasl.h>

  int sasl_encode(sasl_conn_t *conn,
		       const char * input,
		       unsigned inputlen,
		       const char ** output,
		       unsigned * outputlen);

  int sasl_encodev(sasl_conn_t *conn,
		       const struct iovec * invec,
		       unsigned numiov,
		       const char ** output,
		       unsigned * outputlen);

DESCRIPTION
  sasl_encode encodes data to be sent to be sent to a remote host who we've
  had a successful authentication session with. If there is a negotiated
  security the data in signed/encrypted and the output should be sent without
  modification to the remote host. If there is no security layer the output
  is identical to the input.

  sasl_encodev does the same, but for a struct iovec instead of a character
  buffer.

  output contains the encoded data and is allocated/freed by the library.

RETURN VALUE
  Returns SASL_OK on success.  See sasl_errors(3) for meanings of other
  return codes.

CONFORMING TO
  RFC 2222
