CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD(3) Library Functions Manual CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD(3) NAME CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD - username and password to use for proxy authentica- tion 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 user- name you should encode it as %3A. (This is different to how CURLOPT_USER- PWD(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. Using this option multiple times makes the last set string override the previous ones. Set it to NULL to disable its use again. DEFAULT NULL 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_PROXYUSERPWD, "clark%20kent:superman"); result = curl_easy_perform(curl); curl_easy_cleanup(curl); } } AVAILABILITY Added in curl 7.1 RETURN VALUE curl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error. CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see libcurl-errors(3).
