.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBgss_display_name()\fR function allows an application to obtain a textual
representation of an opaque internal-form  name for display purposes.
.sp
.LP
If \fIinput_name\fR denotes an anonymous principal, the \fBGSS-API\fR returns
the \fBgss_OID\fR value \fBGSS_C_NT_ANONYMOUS\fR as the \fIoutput_name_type\fR,
and a textual name that is syntactically distinct from all valid supported
printable names in \fIoutput_name_buffer\fR.
.sp
.LP
If \fIinput_name\fR was created by a call to \fBgss_import_name\fR(3GSS),
specifying \fBGSS_C_NO_OID\fR as the name-type, the GSS-API returns
\fBGSS_C_NO_OID\fR by means of the \fIoutput_name_type\fR parameter.
.SH PARAMETERS
.sp
.LP
The parameter descriptions for \fBgss_display_name()\fR follow:
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fIminor_status\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 22n
Mechanism-specific status code.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fIinput_name\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 22n
Name in internal form.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fIoutput_name_buffer\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 22n
Buffer to receive textual name string. The application must free storage
associated with this name after use with a call to
\fBgss_release_buffer\fR(3GSS).
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fIoutput_name_type\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 22n
The type of the returned name.  The returned \fBgss_OID\fR will be a pointer
into static storage and should be treated as read-only by the caller. In
particular, the application should not attempt to free it. Specify \fINULL\fR
if this parameter is not required.
.RE

.SH ERRORS
.sp
.LP
The \fBgss_display_name()\fR function may return the following status codes:
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBGSS_S_COMPLETE\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 18n
Successful completion.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBGSS_S_BAD_NAME\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 18n
The \fIinput_name\fR was ill-formed.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBGSS_S_FAILURE\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 18n
The underlying mechanism detected an error for which no specific \fBGSS\fR
status code is defined.  The mechanism-specific status code reported by means
of the \fIminor_status\fR parameter details the error condition.
