CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYSTATUS(3) Library Functions Manual CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYSTATUS(3)

NAME
     CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYSTATUS - verify the certificate's status

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curl/curl.h>

     CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYSTATUS, long verify);

DESCRIPTION
     Pass a long as parameter set to 1 to enable or 0 to disable.

     This  option  determines  whether libcurl verifies the status of the server
     cert using the "Certificate Status Request" TLS extension (aka.  OCSP  sta-
     pling).

     Note that if this option is enabled but the server does not support the TLS
     extension, the verification fails.

DEFAULT
     0

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

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

EXAMPLE
     int main(void)
     {
       CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
	 CURLcode result;
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
	 /* ask for OCSP stapling */
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYSTATUS, 1L);
	 result = curl_easy_perform(curl);
	 curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
       }
     }

AVAILABILITY
     Added in curl 7.41.0

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).
