gss_release_cred(3)					   gss_release_cred(3)

NAME
       gss_release_cred - Free resource associated with credential.

SYNOPSIS
       #include <gssapi/gssapi.h>

       OM_uint32 gss_release_cred(
	       OM_uint32 * minor_status,
	       gss_cred_id_t * cred_handle );

PARAMETERS
       Kerberos 5 error code.  Credentials being released. If GSS_C_NO_CREDEN‐
       TIAL is specified, the function executes but does nothing. A  value  of
       GSS_C_NO_CREDENTIALS is returned.

DESCRIPTION
       The  gss_release_cred() function informs the GSS-API that the specified
       credentials  handle  is	no  longer  required  and   frees   associated
       resources.  The data structure housing a copy of the credentials within
       the application's address space is released. Service table and  creden‐
       tials cache entries are left intact.

       Before  deciding	 when  to  release  credentials,  the application must
       determine if it is going to be initiating or  accepting	security  con‐
       texts  more  than  once	during the application's execution. If so, the
       application may want to retain credentials and reuse  them  later  with
       the  initiate or accept security context functions, rather than releas‐
       ing them immediately after the first use.

RETURN VALUES
       GSS_S_CALL_INACCESSIBLE_READ    01xxxxxx
       GSS_S_CALL_INACCESSIBLE_WRITE   02xxxxxx
       GSS_S_COMPLETE		       00000000
       GSS_S_FAILURE		       xx0Dxxxx
       GSS_S_NO_CRED		       xx07xxxx
