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.
