&nbsp;&nbsp;Syntax
<pre>
#include &lt;krb5.h&gt;
krb5_error_code krb5_init_context(
krb5_context * <em>context</em>);

<p>The <strong>krb5_init_context()</strong> function creates a new Kerberos
context and initializes it with default values obtained from the Kerberos
configuration file. Each application needs at least one Kerberos context. A
context may be shared by multiple threads within the same process. Use the
<strong>krb5_free_context()</strong> routine to release the context when it is
no longer needed.</p>
