   sec_cred_get_pa_data - Returns identity information from a privilege
                          attribute handle

 SYNOPSIS

 #include <dce/sec_cred.h>

 sec_id_pa_t *sec_cred_get_pa_data(
         sec_cred_pa_handle_t callers_pas,
         error_status_t *status);

 PARAMETERS

 Input

 callers_pas
     A handle of type sec_cred_pa_handle_t to a principal's privilege
     attributes. This handle is supplied as output of either the
     sec_cred_get_initiator() call or sec_cred_get_delegate() call.

 Output

 status
     A pointer to the completion status.  On successful completion,
     status is assigned error_status_ok.

 DESCRIPTION

 The sec_cred_get_pa_data() routine extracts identity information from
 the privilege attribute handle specified by callers_pas and returns it
 in a sec_id_pa_t.  The identity information includes an identifier of
 the princpal's locall cell and the principal's local and foreign group
 sets.

 Before you execute sec_cred_get_pa_data(), you must execute a
 sec_cred_get_initiator() or sec_cred_get_delegate() call to obtain a
 sec_cred_pa_handle_t for the callers_pas parameter.

 ERRORS

 sec_cred_s_invalid_pa_handle

 error_status_ok
