SYNOPSIS

9       cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsasl   [ library ... ]

DESCRIPTION

16       Use   the   sasl_client_init()   interface   to  initialize  SASL.  The
17       sasl_client_init()  interface  must  be  called  before  any  calls  to
18       sasl_client_start(3SASL).  The  call to sasl_client_init() initiallizes
19       all SASL client drivers, for example, authentication  mechanisms.  SASL
20       client drivers are usually found in the /usr/lib/sasl directory.
21

PARAMETERS
