65
66.B sasl_encode
67encodes data to be sent to be sent to a remote host who we've had a successful authentication session with. If there is a negotiated security the data in signed/encrypted and the output should be sent without modification to the remote host. If there is no security layer the output is identical to the input.
68
69.B sasl_encodev
70does the same, but for a struct iovec instead of a character buffer.
71
72.I output
73contains the encoded data and is allocated/freed by the library.
74
75.SH "RETURN VALUE"
76Returns SASL_OK on success.  See sasl_errors(3) for meanings of other return
77codes.
