The gss_test_oid_set_member() function interrogates an object identifier set to determine if a specified object identifier is a member. This function should be used with OID sets returned by gss_indicate_mechs(3GSS), gss_acquire_cred(3GSS), and gss_inquire_cred(3GSS), but it will also work with user-generated sets.

The parameter descriptions for gss_test_oid_set_member() follow:

minor_status

A mechanism-specific status code

member

An object identifier whose presence is to be tested

set

An object identifier set.

present

The value of present is non-zero if the specified OID is a member of the set; if not, the value of present is zero.

The gss_test_oid_set_member() function may return the following status codes:

GSS_S_COMPLETE

Successful completion

GSS_S_FAILURE

The underlying mechanism detected an error for which no specific GSS status code is defined. The mechanism-specific status code reported by means of the minor_status parameter details the error condition.
