NAME

gss_add_oid_set_member —

Add an object identifier to a set

SYNOPSIS

#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);

DESCRIPTION

Add an Object Identifier to an Object Identifier set. This routine is intended for use in conjunction with gss_create_empty_oid_set() when constructing a set of mechanism OIDs for input to gss_acquire_cred(). The oid_set parameter must refer to an OID-set that was created by GSS-API (e.g. a set returned by gss_create_empty_oid_set().) GSS-API creates a copy of the member_oid and inserts this copy into the set, expanding the storage allocated to the OID-set's elements array if necessary. The routine may add the new member OID anywhere within the elements array, and implementations should verify that the new member_oid is not already contained within the elements array; if the member_oid is already present, the oid_set should remain unchanged.

PARAMETERS

minor_status: Mechanism specific status code.
member_oid: The object identifier to copied into the set.
oid_set: The set in which the object identifier should be inserted.

RETURN VALUES

GSS_S_COMPLETE: Successful completion

STANDARDS
