Description :
This module gives access to the routines of the GSSAPI library, as described
in rfc2743 and rfc2744 and implemented by the Kerberos-1.2 distribution from
MIT.
Since 0.14 it also compiles and works with Heimdal. Lacks of Heimdal support
are gss_release_oid(), gss_str_to_oid() and fail of some tests. Have a look
at the tests in t/ directory too see what tests fail on Heimdal ( the *.t tests
are just skipping them at the moment)
The API presented by this module is a mildly object oriented reinterpretation
of the C API, where opaque C structures are Perl objects, but the style of
function call has been left mostly untouched. As a result, most routines modify
one or more of the parameters passed to them, reflecting the C call-by-reference
(or call-by-value-return) semantics.
All users of this module are therefore strongly advised to localize all usage
of these routines to minimize pain if and when the API changes.
