NAME
       gss_inquire_names_for_mech - list the name-types supported by the spec-
       ified mechanism

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

       OM_uint32 gss_inquire_names_for_mech(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
            const gss_OID mechanism,gss_OID_set *name_types);


DESCRIPTION
       The gss_inquire_names_for_mech() function returns the set of name-types
       supported by the specified mechanism.

PARAMETERS
       The parameter descriptions for gss_inquire_names_for_mech() follow:

       minor_status    A mechanism-specific status code.


       mechanism       The mechanism to be interrogated.


       name_types      Set of name-types supported by the specified mechanism.
                       The returned OID set must be freed by  the  application
                       after use with a call to gss_release_oid_set(3GSS).


ERRORS
       The gss_inquire_names_for_mech() function may return the following val-
       ues:

       GSS_S_COMPLETE    Successful completion.


       GSS_S_FAILURE     The underlying mechanism detected an error for  which
                         no  specific  GSS status code is defined.  The mecha-
                         nism-specific status code reported by  means  of  the
                         minor_status parameter details the error condition.
