C Prototype

krb5_error_code krb5_cc_resolve(
         krb5_context   context,
         char           *string_name,
         krb5_ccache    *id );

Arguments

context (input/output) 

The context structure.

string_name (input)  

The credentials cache name to resolve.

id (output)  

The credentials cache identifier that corresponds to the name in string_name.

Description

This routine fills in id with a ccache identifier that corresponds to the name in string_name.

It requires that string_name be of the form type=residual and type is a type known to the library.

Because of OpenVMS file naming differences, the string_name argument is formed in a slightly different way than on other platforms. The equal sign (=) is substituted for the colon (:) to separate the type from the residual.

Return Values

This routine returns the following KRB5 status code:

0

Successful completion.

ENOMEM

Insufficient memory.



krb5_cc_remove_cred — Remove credentials from the credentials cache
  		 


krb5_cc_retrieve_cred — Search the cache for a credential and return it if found
