The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option. Using this option multiple times makes the last set string override the previous ones. Set it to NULL to disable its use again. .SH DEFAULT NULL .SH PROTOCOLS This functionality affects ftp only .SH EXAMPLE .nf int main(void) { CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); if(curl) { CURLcode res; curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp://example.com/foo.bin"); curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT, "human-resources"); res = curl_easy_perform(curl); curl_easy_cleanup(curl); } } .fi .SH AVAILABILITY Added in curl 7.13.0 .SH RETURN VALUE Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space. .SH SEE ALSO .BR CURLOPT_PASSWORD (3), .BR CURLOPT_USERNAME (3)
