Credential Handle Management.
Create/Destroy/Modify a GSI Credential Handle.
Within the Globus GSI Credential Library, all credential operations require a handle parameter. Currently only one operation may be in progress at once per credential handle.
This section defines operations to create, modify and destroy GSI Credential handles.
typedef struct globus_l_gsi_cred_handle_s* globus_gsi_cred_handle_t |
GSI Credential Handle.
A GSI Credential handle keeps track of state relating to a credential. Handles can have immutable attributes associated with them. All credential operations take a credential handle pointer as a parameter.
