krb5_contextkrb5 state structure

Kerberos 5 Library (libkrb5, -lkrb5)

#include <krb5.h>

The krb5_context structure is designed to hold all per thread state. All global variables that are context specific are stored in this structure, including default encryption types, credentials-cache (ticket file), and default realms.

The internals of the structure should never be accessed directly, functions exist for extracting information.
