The output is returned to the caller either by filling thecaller-specified buffer or by using the application's declared memoryallocation functions to allocate buffer space. To specify a specific,preallocated output buffer, the caller must provide an array ofone or more CSSM_DATA structures, each containing a Length fieldvalue greater than zero and a non-NULL data pointer field value.To specify automatic output buffer allocation by the CSP, the callermust provide an array of one or more CSSM_DATA structures, eachcontaining a Length field value equal to zero and a NULL data pointerfield value. The application is always responsible for deallocatingthe memory when it is no longer needed.
