DESCRIPTION

The gss_release_oid_set() function frees storage associated with a
GSS-API-generated gss_OID_set object. The set parameter must refer to
an OID-set that was returned from a GSS-API function. The
gss_release_oid_set() function will free the storage associated with
each individual member OID, the OID set's elements array, and
gss_OID_set_desc.


gss_OID_set is set to GSS_C_NO_OID_SET on successful completion of
this function.

The gss_release_oid_set() 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.
