Detailed Description

       Header file for the GSI gSOAP plugin.

       cgsi_plugin.h

       Author:
           Ben Couturier CERN, IT/ADC

       This is a GSI plugin for gSOAP. It uses the globus GSI libraries to
       implement GSI secure authentification and encryption on top of gSOAP.
       The globus GSI bundle is necessary for the plugin to compile and run.

Define Documentation

   #define CGSI_OPT_ALLOW_ONLY_SELF   0x100 Allow client and server to only
       connect together when they have the same identity
   #define CGSI_OPT_CLIENT   0x1 Options that can be specified when
       initializing the cgsi_plugin (in the arg parameter): The program acts
       as a client.
   #define CGSI_OPT_DELEG_FLAG   0x4 Initiate delegation over the HTTPG
       protocol.
   #define CGSI_OPT_DISABLE_MAPPING   0x40 Disable DN->userid mapping via
       gridmap-file.
   #define CGSI_OPT_DISABLE_NAME_CHECK   0x10 Disable comparing the servers
       host name with its certificates CN.
   #define CGSI_OPT_DISABLE_VOMS_CHECK   0x80 Disable connect time VOMS
       parsing for better error handling via an explicit call to
       retrieve_voms_credentials()
   #define CGSI_OPT_KEEP_ALIVE   0x20 Keep alive the HTTP connection.
   #define CGSI_OPT_SERVER   0x2 The program acts as a server.
   #define CGSI_OPT_SSL_COMPATIBLE   0x8 Using pure SSL protocol, for
       compatibility.

           0 if successful, -1 otherwise

   void clear_default_proxy_file (int unlink_file) Clears the env variable
       used by GSI to specify the proxy filename
       Parameters:
           unlink_file Set to 1 if you want to destroy the credential file as
           well

   int client_cgsi_plugin (struct soap * soap, struct soap_plugin * plugin,

       Export the delegated credentials (if available) to a file
       Parameters:
           soap The soap structure for the request
           filename Name of the file where the credentials are to be written

       Returns:
           0 if successful, -1 otherwise

   int get_client_dn (struct soap * soap, char * dn, size_t dnlen) Gets the
       Distinguished name (DN) of the client
       Parameters:
           soap The soap structure for the request
           dn Pointer to a buffer where the DN is to be written
           dnlen The length of the buffer

       Returns:
           0 if successful, -1 otherwise

   char** get_client_roles (struct soap * soap, int * nbfqans) Returns the
       client VO roles if they were provided in the certificate
       Parameters:
           soap The soap structure for the request
           nbfqans The number of returned Fully Qualified Attribute Names

       Returns:
           The client roles are malloced in the soap structure (DON’T free),
           NULL otherwise

   int get_client_username (struct soap * soap, char * username, size_t dnlen)
       Gets the username (DN) of the client
       Parameters:
           soap The soap structure for the request
           username Pointer to a buffer where the username is to be written
           dnlen The length of the buffer

       Returns:

   char* get_client_voname (struct soap * soap) Returns the client VO name if
       it was provided in the certificate
       Parameters:
           soap The soap structure for the request

       Returns:
           The client voname is malloced in the soap structure (DON’T free),

   int get_delegated_credentials (struct soap * soap, void ** buffer, size_t *
       length) Make the delegated credential available as a token in memory.

   int retrieve_voms_credentials (struct soap * soap) Parses the optional VOMS
       extension of the peer certificate. It has to be called before

           soap The soap structure for the request

       Returns:
           0 if successful, -1 otherwise SOAP Fault structure contains the
           detailed description.

   int server_cgsi_plugin (struct soap * soap, struct soap_plugin * plugin,
       void * arg) Server contructor for the cgsi_plugin
       Parameters:

   int soap_cgsi_init (struct soap * soap, int cgsi_options) Helper function

       plugin, use the CGSI_OPT_SERVER option.
       Parameters:
           soap The soap structure for the request
           cgsi_options The parameters for the plugin creation (bitwise or of
