\fBOM_uint32\fR \fBgss_create_empty_oid_set\fR(\fBOM_uint32 *\fR\fIminor_status\fR,

.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBgss_create_empty_oid_set()\fR function creates an object-identifier set containing no object identifiers to which members may be subsequently added using the \fBgss_add_oid_set_member\fR(3GSS) function.  These functions can be used to construct sets of mechanism object identifiers for input to \fBgss_acquire_cred\fR(3GSS).
.SH PARAMETERS

Empty object identifier set. The function will allocate the \fBgss_OID_set_desc\fR object, which the  application must free after use with a call to \fBgss_release_oid_set\fR(3GSS).

.SH ERRORS
