libsasl Cleanup

This step releases all the resources in the SASL library and the plug-ins. The client and server call sasl_done() to release libsasl() resources and to unload all the SASL plug-ins. sasl_done() does not release SASL connection contexts. Note that if an application is both a SASL client and a SASL server, sasl_done() releases both the SASL client and SASL server resources. You cannot release the resources for just the client or the server.


Caution – Caution –

Libraries should not call sasl_done(). Applications should exercise caution when calling sasl_done() to avoid interference with any libraries that might be using libsasl.
