NAME

gss_add_oid_set_member - add an object identifier to an object identifier set

SYNOPSIS

cc [ flag... ] file... -lgss  [ library... ] 
#include <gssapi/gssapi.h>

OM_uint32 gss_add_oid_set_member(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
    const gss_OID member_oid, gss_OID_set *oid_set);

PARAMETERS

The parameter descriptions for gss_add_oid_set_member() follow:

minor_status

: A mechanism specific status code.

member_oid

: Object identifier to be copied into the set.

oid_set

: Set in which the object identifier should be inserted.

DESCRIPTION

The gss_add_oid_set_member() function adds an object identifier to an object identifier set. You should use this function in conjunction with gss_create_empty_oid_set(3GSS) when constructing a set of mechanism OIDs for input to gss_acquire_cred(3GSS). The oid_set parameter must refer to an OID-set created by GSS-API, that is, a set returned by gss_create_empty_oid_set(3GSS).

The GSS-API creates a copy of the member_oid and inserts this copy into the set, expanding the storage allocated to the OID-set elements array, if necessary. New members are always added to the end of the OID set's elements. If the member_oid is already present, the oid_set should remain unchanged.

ERRORS

The gss_add_oid_set_member() function can return the following status codes:

GSS_S_COMPLETE

: Successful completion.

GSS_S_FAILURE

: The underlying mechanism detected an error for which no specific GSS status code is defined. The mechanism-specific status code reported by means of the minor_status parameter details the error condition.
