 gss_duplicate_name 3GSS "14 Jan 2003" "SunOS 5.11" "Generic Security Services API Library Functions"
 NAME
gss_duplicate_name - create a copy of an internal name
 SYNOPSIS

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

OM_uint32 gss_duplicate_name(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
 const gss_name_t src_name,gss_name_t *dest_name);


 DESCRIPTION

The gss_duplicate_name() function creates an exact duplicate of the
existing internal name src_name. The new dest_name will be
independent of the src_name. The src_name and dest_name must
both be released, and the release of one does not affect the validity of the
other.
 PARAMETERS

The parameter descriptions for gss_duplicate_name() follow:

minor_status

A mechanism-specific status code.


src_name

Internal name to be duplicated.


dest_name

The resultant copy of src_name. Storage associated with this name must
be freed by the application after use with a call to
gss_release_name(3GSS).


 ERRORS

The gss_duplicate_name() function may return the following status codes:

GSS_S_COMPLETE

Successful completion.


GSS_S_BAD_NAME

The src_name parameter was ill-formed.


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.
