NAME
       GSSAPI::OID - methods for handling GSSAPI OIDs and some constant OIDs

SYNOPSIS
         use GSSAPI;

         #$oid = GSSAPI::OID->new;             # rarely needed or wanted

         $status = GSSAPI::OID->fromstr($oid, "{ 1 2 840 113554 1 2 1 1 }");
         #
         # only supported on MIT Kerberos
         #

         $status = $oid->tostr($str);
         #
         # only supported on MIT Kerberos
         #

         $status = $oid->inquirenames($oidset);

         # Constant OIDs provided:
         $oid = gssntusername;
         $oid = gssntmachineuidname;
         $oid = gssntstringuidname;
         $oid = gssntservicename;
         $oid = gssntexportedname;
         $oid = gssntservicenamev2;
         $oid = gssntkrb5name;
         $oid = gssntkrb5principal;
         $oid = gssmechkrb5;
         $oid = gssmechkrb5old;
         $oid = gssmechkrb5v2;

         $oid = gssmechspnego;

         # if your GSSAPI implementation supports
         # SPNEGO (Heimdal 0.7 for example
         # you can  use mechtype OID::gssmechspnego.
         #
         # use GSSAPI::indicatemechs( $oidset );
         # to get the of mechtypes your implementation supports


         $oid = gssnthostbasedservice; # GSSCNTHOSTBASEDSERVICE

DESCRIPTION
       "GSSAPI::OID" objects are used as unique indentifiers/constants for
       'mechanisisms' - the particular protocol and version being used - and
       for the encodings used to represent names.  In many cases you can
       request the default mechanism or encoding for the implmentation by
       using GSSCNOOID.  Check the description of the routine in rfc2743 if
       you're not sure.
