This structure describes a buffer that a transport application allocates to pass to a security package.
typedef struct _SecBuffer {ULONGcbBuffer;ULONG BufferType;PVOID pvBuffer;} SecBuffer, *PSecBuffer;
Members
- cbBuffer 
 Specifies the size, in bytes, of the buffer pointed to by the pvBuffer member.
- BufferType 
 Set of bit flags that indicate the type of buffer. The following table shows the available flags.- Flag - Description - SECBUFFER_EMPTY - This is a placeholder in the buffer array. The caller can supply several such entries in the array, and the security package can return data in them. - SECBUFFER_DATA - Used for common data. The security package can read this data and write it, for example, to encrypt some or all of it. - SECBUFFER_TOKEN - This buffer is used to indicate the security token portion of the message. This is read-only for input parameters or read/write for output parameters. - SECBUFFER_PKG_PARAMS - These are transport-to-package–specific parameters. For example, the Netware redirector may supply the server object identifier, while DCE RPC can supply an association UUID and so on. - SECBUFFER_MISSING - The security package uses this value to indicate the number of missing bytes in a particular message. The pvBuffer member is ignored in this type. - SECBUFFER_EXTRA - The security package uses this value to indicate the number of extra or unprocessed bytes in a message. - SECBUFFER_STREAM_TRAILER - Indicates a protocol-specific trailer for a particular record. This is not usually of interest to callers. - SECBUFFER_STREAM_HEADER - Indicates a protocol-specific header for a particular record. This is not usually of interest to callers. - In addition, BufferType can combine the following flag with any of the flags in the preceding table. - Flag - Description - SECBUFFER_READONLY - The buffer is read-only. This flag is intended for sending header data to the security package for checksumming. The package can read this buffer but cannot modify it. 
- pvBuffer 
 Void pointer to a buffer.
