NAME
       sasl_setprop - Set a SASL property

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sasl/sasl.h>


       int sasl_setprop(sasl_conn_t *conn,
                       int propnum,
                       const void * pvalue)


DESCRIPTION
       sasl_setprop sets the value of a SASL property. For example an applica-
       tion should tell the SASL library about any external  negotiated  secu-
       rity layer (i.e. TLS).

       conn  is the SASL connection object.  propnum is the identifier for the
       property requested and pvalue contains a pointer to the data. It is the
       applications job to make sure this type is correct. This is an easy way
       to crash a program.

       SASL_AUTH_EXTERNAL - external authentication ID (const char *)
       SASL_SSF_EXTERNAL -  external SSF active -- (sasl_ssf_t)
       SASL_DEFUSERREALM - user realm (const char *)
       SASL_SEC_PROPS  -    sasl_security_properties_t (may be freed after call)
       SASL_IPLOCALPORT -   string describing the local ip and port in the form
                            "a.b.c.d;p", or "e:f:g:h:i:j:k:l;port"
       SASL_IPREMOTEPORT -  string describing the remote ip and port in the form
                            "a.b.c.d;p", or "e:f:g:h:i:j:k:l;port"


RETURN VALUE
       Returns SASL_OK on success. SASL error code on failure.
