CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD(3) | Library Functions Manual | CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD(3) |
NAME
CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD - username and password to use for proxy authentication
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD, char *userpwd);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a char pointer as parameter, which should be [username]:[password] to use for the connection to the HTTP proxy. Both the name and the password are URL decoded before used, so to include for example a colon in the username you should encode it as %3A. (This is different to how CURLOPT_USERPWD(3) is used - beware.)
Use CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH(3) to specify the authentication method.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.
DEFAULT
This is NULL by default.
