.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
.nf
#include <sasl/sasl.h>
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
\fBsasl_callbacks\fP are used when the application needs some
information from the application. Common reasons are getting
for getting usernames and passwords. A client MUST
specify what callbacks they support in the
sasl_client_init(3)/sasl_server_init(3)
or sasl_client_new(3)/sasl_server_new(3)
calls. If an authentication mechanism needs a callback
that the application does not state it supports it cannot
be used.
.sp
If a callback has an id parameter that should be checked
to make sure you are giving the appropriate value.
.sp
If an application is using the client side of the library
functions to handle the callbacks are not necessary.
Instead the application may deal with callbacks via
SASL_INTERACT’s. See sasl_client_start(3)/sasl_client_step(3) for more
information.
