CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH(3) Library Functions Manual CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH(3)

NAME
       CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH - get entry path	in FTP server

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode	curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle,	CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH, char **path);

DESCRIPTION
       Pass a pointer to a char	pointer	to receive a pointer to	a string hold-
       ing  the	path of	the entry path.	That is	the initial path libcurl ended
       up in when logging on to	the remote FTP or SFTP server. This  stores  a
       NULL as pointer if something is wrong.

       The path	pointer	is NULL	or points to private memory. You must not free
       it.    The    memory   gets   freed   automatically   when   you	  call
       curl_easy_cleanup(3) on the corresponding curl handle.

PROTOCOLS
       This functionality affects ftp and sftp

EXAMPLE
       int main(void)
       {
	 CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();

	   res = curl_easy_perform(curl);

	   if(!res) {
	     /*	extract	the entry path */
	     char *ep =	NULL;
	     res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH, &ep);
	     if(!res &&	ep) {
	       printf("Entry path was: %s\n", ep);
	     }
	   }
	   curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
	 }
