NAME
     sasl_decode - decode data received

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsasl   [ library ... ]
     #include 

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


DESCRIPTION
     Use the sasl_decode() interface  to  decode  data  received.
     After   authentication,  call  this  function  on  all  data
     received. The data is decoded from encrypted or signed  form
     to  plain data. If no security lay is negotiated, the output
     is identical to the input.


     Do not give sasl_decode() more data than the negotiated max-
     bufsize. See sasl_getprop(3SASL).


     sasl_decode() can complete successfully although  the  value
     of  outputlen  is  zero.  If this is the case, wait for more
     data and call sasl_decode() again.

PARAMETERS
     conn         The SASL connection context.


     input        Data received.


     inputlen     The length of input


     output       The decoded data. output must be  allocated  or
                  freed by the library.


     outputlen    The length of output.


RETURN VALUES
     sasl_decode() returns an integer that corresponds to a  SASL
     error code.

ERRORS
     SASL_OK    The call to sasl_decode() was successful.
