| Subject: | The XS code has some problems, e.g. passwd callbacks cause SIGSEGV |
Hello,
we wanted to use your module to talk to a Cyrus murder complex. In
order to do that, we had to overcome a number of problems.
The most time was spend because we overlooked this comment in
Cyrus.xs:
For SASL_CB_PASS, the context is in the SECOND param
We solved the problem with a second PerlCallback function calling the
first.
While we tried to find out why the callbacks where sometimes called
with bad perl contexts, we simplified the memory allocation stuff and
replaced alloc/free/strdup calls by the perl API macros recommended in
the perl documention.
A minor problem was to make the module compile with the perl 5.003 we
had on our production systems. There was also a dereferencing error
we fixed.
As our changes where quite extensive (API macros), I do attach not
only the patch to your version but also the complete new version.
Please consider our changes for the next version of your module.
Cheers,
Ulrich Pfeifer
