# krb5_unparse_name - Convert a krb5_principal structure to a string representation.

krb5_error_code `krb5_unparse_name`(krb5_context context, krb5_const_principal principal, char ** name)

param: | [in] context - Library context [in] principal - Principal [out] name - String representation of principal name

retval: | 0 Success
return: | Kerberos error codes

The resulting string representation uses the format and quoting conventions described for `krb5_parse_name()` .

Use `krb5_free_unparsed_name()` to free name when it is no longer needed.
