.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
These functions allow an application to manipulate the fields of a
|
|
security context string without requiring it to know the format of the
|
|
string.
|
|
|
|
.BR context_new ()
|
|
returns a new context initialized to a context string.
|
|
|
|
.BR context_str ()
|
|
returns a pointer to the string value of the
|
|
.BR context_t ,
|
|
valid until the next call to
|
|
.BR context_str ()
|
|
or
|
|
.BR context_free ()
|
|
for the same
|
|
.BR context_t* .
|
|
|
|
.BR context_free ()
|
|
frees the storage used by a context.
|
|
|
|
.BR context_type_get (),
|
|
.BR context_range_get (),
|
|
.BR context_role_get (),
|
|
.BR \%context_user_get ()
|
|
get a pointer to the string value of a context component.
|
|
|
|
.B Note:
|
|
Values returned by the get functions are only valid until the next call
|
|
to a set function or
|
|
.BR context_free ()
|
|
for the same
|
|
.B context_t
|
|
structure.
|
|
|
|
.BR context_type_set (),
|
|
.BR context_range_set (),
|
|
.BR context_role_set (),
|
|
.BR \%context_user_set ()
|
|
set a context component.
|
|
.
|

.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
|
On failure
|
|
.BR context_*_set ()
|
|
functions return non-zero and 0 on success.
|
|
|
|
The other functions return NULL on failure and non-NULL on success.
|
|
|
|
