/**
* Performs SASL authentication as a client.
*<p>
* A protocol library such as one for LDAP gets an instance of this
* class in order to perform authentication defined by a specific SASL
* mechanism. Invoking methods on the {@code SaslClient} instance
* process challenges and create responses according to the SASL
* mechanism implemented by the {@code SaslClient}.
* As the authentication proceeds, the instance
* encapsulates the state of a SASL client's authentication exchange.
*<p>
* Here's an example of how an LDAP library might use a {@code SaslClient}.
* It first gets an instance of a {@code SaslClient}:
*<blockquote>{@code
* SaslClient sc = Sasl.createSaslClient(mechanisms,
* authorizationId, protocol, serverName, props, callbackHandler);
*}</pre>
* It can then proceed to use the client for authentication.
* For example, an LDAP library might use the client as follows:
*<blockquote>{@code
* // Get initial response and send to server
* byte[] response = (sc.hasInitialResponse() ? sc.evaluateChallenge(new byte[0]) :
* null);
* LdapResult res = ldap.sendBindRequest(dn, sc.getName(), response);
* while (!sc.isComplete() &&
* (res.status == SASL_BIND_IN_PROGRESS || res.status == SUCCESS)) {
* response = sc.evaluateChallenge(res.getBytes());
* if (res.status == SUCCESS) {
* // we're done; don't expect to send another BIND
* if (response != null) {
* throw new SaslException(
* "Protocol error: attempting to send response after completion");
* }
* break;
* }
* res = ldap.sendBindRequest(dn, sc.getName(), response);
* }
* if (sc.isComplete() && res.status == SUCCESS) {
* String qop = (String) sc.getNegotiatedProperty(Sasl.QOP);
* if (qop != null
* && (qop.equalsIgnoreCase("auth-int")
* || qop.equalsIgnoreCase("auth-conf"))) {
*
* // Use SaslClient.wrap() and SaslClient.unwrap() for future
* // communication with server
* ldap.in = new SecureInputStream(sc, ldap.in);
* ldap.out = new SecureOutputStream(sc, ldap.out);
* }
* }
*}</pre>
*
* If the mechanism has an initial response, the library invokes
* {@code evaluateChallenge()} with an empty
* challenge and to get initial response.
* Protocols such as IMAP4, which do not include an initial response with
* their first authentication command to the server, initiates the
* authentication without first calling {@code hasInitialResponse()}
* or {@code evaluateChallenge()}.
* When the server responds to the command, it sends an initial challenge.
* For a SASL mechanism in which the client sends data first, the server should
* have issued a challenge with no data. This will then result in a call
* (on the client) to {@code evaluateChallenge()} with an empty challenge.
