typedef struct SilcChannelEntryStruct { ... } *SilcChannelEntry;

    This structure represents a channel in the SILC network.  All
    channels that the client are aware of or have joined in will be
    represented as SilcChannelEntry.  The structure includes information
    about the channel.  All strings in the structure are UTF-8 encoded.

    Application may store its own pointer into the context pointer in
    this structure.

    If application stores the SilcChannelEntry it must always take
    a reference of it by calling silc_client_ref_channel function.  The
    reference must be released after it is not needed anymore by calling
    silc_client_unref_channel function.
