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.

PROTOCOLS
       All

EXAMPLE
       int main(void)

           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/foo.bin");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "http://localhost:8080");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD, "clark%20kent:superman");
           res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
           curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
         }
       }
