NAME
     gssindicatemechs - determine available security mechanisms

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag... ] file... -lgss  [ library... ]
     #include 

     OMuint32 gssindicatemechs(OMuint32 *minorstatus,
          gssOIDset  *mechset);


DESCRIPTION
     The gssindicatemechs() function enables an application  to
     determine available underlying security mechanisms.

PARAMETERS
     The parameter descriptions for gssindicatemechs() follow:

     minorstatus    A mechanism-specific status code.


     mechset        Set of supported  mechanisms.  The  returned
                     gssOIDset  value  will  be  a dynamically-
                     allocated OID set that should be released by
                     the   caller   after  use  with  a  call  to
                     gssreleaseoidset(3GS).


ERORS
     The gssindicatemechs() function may return  the  following
     status codes:

     GSCOMPLETE    Successful completion.


     GSFAILURE     The underlying mechanism detected an error
                       for  which  no specific GS status code is
                       defined.   The  mechanism-specific  status
                       code reported by means of the minorstatus
                       parameter details the error condition.
