CURLOPT_SSL_EC_CURVES(3)    Library Functions Manual	CURLOPT_SSL_EC_CURVES(3)

NAME
     CURLOPT_SSL_EC_CURVES - key exchange curves

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curl/curl.h>

     CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSL_EC_CURVES, char *list);

DESCRIPTION
     Pass  a  string  as parameter with a colon delimited list of Elliptic curve
     (EC) algorithms. This option defines the client's key  exchange  algorithms
     in  the  SSL handshake (if the SSL backend libcurl is built to use supports
     it).

     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 restore back to internal default.

DEFAULT
     "", embedded in SSL backend

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

     This option works only with the following TLS backends: OpenSSL and wolfSSL

EXAMPLE
     int main(void)
     {
       CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
	 CURLcode result;
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSL_EC_CURVES, "X25519:P-521");
	 result = curl_easy_perform(curl);
	 curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
       }
     }

AVAILABILITY
     Added in curl 7.73.0

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).
