CURLOPT_PROXYPASSWORD(3) Library Functions Manual CURLOPT_PROXYPASSWORD(3) NAME CURLOPT_PROXYPASSWORD - password to use with proxy authentication SYNOPSIS #include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXYPASSWORD, char *pwd); DESCRIPTION Pass a char pointer as parameter, which should be pointing to the null-ter- minated password to use for authentication with the proxy. The CURLOPT_PROXYPASSWORD(3) option should be used in conjunction with the CURLOPT_PROXYUSERNAME(3) option. 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. DEFAULT blank PROTOCOLS This functionality affects all supported protocols EXAMPLE int main(void) { CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); if(curl) { CURLcode result; 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_PROXYUSERNAME, "mrsmith"); curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXYPASSWORD, "qwerty"); result = curl_easy_perform(curl); curl_easy_cleanup(curl); } } AVAILABILITY Added in curl 7.19.1 RETURN VALUE curl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.
