CURLOPT_SSL_ENABLE_NPN(3) Library Functions Manual CURLOPT_SSL_ENABLE_NPN(3)

CURLOPT_SSL_ENABLE_NPN - use NPN

#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSL_ENABLE_NPN, long npn);

Deprecated since 7.86.0. Setting this option has no function.

Pass a long as parameter, 0 or 1 where 1 is for enable and 0 for disable. This option enables/disables NPN in the SSL handshake (if the SSL backend libcurl is built to use supports it), which can be used to negotiate http2.

1, enabled

This functionality affects all TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.

All TLS backends support this option.

    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}

Deprecated since 7.86.0.

Added in curl 7.36.0
