TP_ConfirmCredResult

NAME
  TP_ConfirmCredResult,
  CSSM_TP_ConfirmCredResult - Confirm credentials (CDSA)

SYNOPSIS
  # include <cssm.h>

   API:
       CSSM_RETURN CSSMAPI CSSM_TP_ConfirmCredResult
       (CSSM_TP_HANDLE TPHandle,
       const CSSM_DATA *ReferenceIdentifier,
       const CSSM_TP_CALLERAUTH_CONTEXT *CallerAuthCredentials,
       const CSSM_TP_CONFIRM_RESPONSE *Responses,
       const CSSM_TP_AUTHORITY_ID *PreferredAuthority)
   SPI:
       CSSM_RETURN CSSMTPI TP_ConfirmCredResult
       (CSSM_TP_HANDLE TPHandle,
       const CSSM_DATA *ReferenceIdentifier,
       const CSSM_TP_CALLERAUTH_CONTEXT *CallerAuthCredentials,
       const CSSM_TP_CONFIRM_RESPONSE *Responses,
       const CSSM_TP_AUTHORITY_ID *PreferredAuthority)

LIBRARY
  Common Security Services Manager library (CDSA$INCSSM300_SHR.EXE)

PARAMETERS
  TPHandle (input)
          The handle that describes the certification authority module
          used to perform this function.

  ReferenceIdentifier (input)
          A reference identifier that uniquely identifies execution of
          the call sequence CSSM_TP_SubmitCredRequest() and
          CSSM_TP_RetrieveCredResult() (or the equivalent TP SPI call
          pair) to submit a set of requests and to retrieve the results
          of those requests.

  CallerAuthCredentials (input/optional)
          This structure contains a set of caller authentication
          credentials.  The authentication information can be a
          passphrase, a PIN, a completed registration form, a
          certificate, or a template of user-specific data. The
          required set of credentials is defined by the service
          provider module and recorded in a record in the MDS Primary
          relation. Multiple credentials can be required.  If the local
          service provider module does not require credentials from a
          caller, then the Credentials field of this verification
          context structure can be NULL. The structure optionally
          contains additional credentials that can be used to support
          the authentication process.  Authentication credentials
          required by the authority should be included in the
          RequestInput. The local TP module can forward information
          from the CallerAuthCredentials to the authority, as
          appropriate, but is not required to do so.

  Responses (input)
          An ordered vector of acknowledges indicating the caller's
          acceptance or rejection of results. The vector contains
          one acknowledgement per result returned by
          CSSM_TP_RetrieveCredResult() (CSSM API), or
          TP_RetrieveCredResult() (TP SPI).

  PreferredAuthority (input/optional)
          The identifier which uniquely describes the Authority to
          receive the acknowledgements. The structure can include:

            · An identity certificate for the authority

            · The location of the authority

DESCRIPTION
  This function submits a vector of acknowledgements to a Certificate
  Authority for a set of requests and corresponding results identified
  by ReferenceIdentifier. The caller must execute the call sequence
  CSSM_TP_SubmitCredRequest() and CSSM_TP_RetrieveCredResult()(or the
  equivalent TP SPI calls) to submit a set of requests and to retrieve
  the results of those requests. Some Certificate Authority services
  accessed through the request and retrieve functions require
  confirmation.  The function CSSM_TP_RetrieveCredResult() (CSSM API),
  or TP_RetrieveCredResult() (TP SPI), returns a value indicating
  whether the caller must invoke CSSM_TP_ConfirmCredResult(),
  (CSSM API), or TP_ConfirmCredResult() (TP SPI), to successfully
  complete the service.

  The Responses vector accepts or rejects each result independently.
  If the caller rejects a returned result, the action taken by the
  authority depends on the requested type of service.

  The ReferenceIdentifier also identifies the authority process state
  associated with the function pair CSSM_TP_SubmitCredRequest() and
  CSSM_TP_RetrieveCredResult() (or the equivalent TP SPI calls). The
  PreferredAuthority information can be used to further identify the
  authority to receive the acknowledgement. After successful execution
  of this function, the value of the ReferenceIdentifier is undefined
  and should not be used in subsequent operations in the current module
  attach session.

  This function fails if ReferenceIdentifier is invalid or the
  Authority process can not be located.

RETURN VALUE
  A CSSM_RETURN value indicating success or specifying a particular
  error condition. The value CSSM_OK indicates success. All other
  values represent an error condition.

ERRORS
  Errors are described in the CDSA technical standard.  See CDSA.
