NAME [Toc] [Back]
gss_delete_sec_context() - delete a security context
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
#include<gssapi.h>
OM_uint32 gss_delete_sec_context (
OM_uint32 *minor_status,
gss_ctx_id_t *context_handle,
gss_buffer_t output_token_buffer)
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
The gss_delete_sec_context() routine deletes a security context. It
also deletes the local data structures associated with the security
context. When it deletes the context, the routine can generate a
token. The application passes the token to the context acceptor. The
context acceptor then passes the token to the
gss_process_context_token() routine, telling it to delete the context
and all associated local data structures.
When the context is deleted, the applications cannot use the
context_handle parameter for additional security services.
Input Parameters [Toc] [Back]
context_handle Specifies the context handle for the context to
delete.
Output Parameters [Toc] [Back]
minor_status Returns a status code from the security
mechanism.
output_token_buffer Returns a token to pass to the context acceptor.
STATUS CODES [Toc] [Back]
The following status codes can be returned:
GSS_S_COMPLETE The routine was completed successfully.
GSS_S_FAILURE The routine failed. See the minor_status
parameter return value for more information.
GSS_S_NO_CONTEXT The supplied context handle did not refer to
a valid context.
