curl_version(3) Library Functions Manual curl_version(3) NAME curl_version - returns the libcurl version string SYNOPSIS #include <curl/curl.h> char *curl_version(); DESCRIPTION Returns a human readable string with the version number of libcurl and some of its important components (like OpenSSL version). For MultiSSL builds the string contains all SSL backend names and the inac- tive backend names are in parentheses. For example "(OpenSSL/3.0.8) Schan- nel" or "OpenSSL/3.0.8 (Schannel)". We recommend using curl_version_info(3) instead. PROTOCOLS This functionality affects all supported protocols EXAMPLE int main(void) { printf("libcurl version %s\n", curl_version()); } AVAILABILITY Added in curl 7.1 RETURN VALUE A pointer to a null-terminated string. The string resides in a statically allocated buffer and must not be freed by the caller. SEE ALSO curl_version_info(3) libcurl 2026-06-11 curl_version(3)
