CURLINFO_COOKIELIST(3)	    Library Functions Manual	  CURLINFO_COOKIELIST(3)

NAME
     CURLINFO_COOKIELIST - all known cookies

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curl/curl.h>

     CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_COOKIELIST,
				struct curl_slist **cookies);

DESCRIPTION
     Pass  a  pointer to a 'struct curl_slist *' to receive a linked-list of all
     cookies  curl  knows  (expired  ones,  too).  Do	not   forget   to   call
     curl_slist_free_all(3)  on the list after it has been used. If there are no
     cookies (cookies for the handle have not been enabled or none have been re-
     ceived) the 'struct curl_slist *' is made a NULL pointer.

     Cookies that were imported in the Set-Cookie format without a  domain  name
     are not exported by this option.

PROTOCOLS
     This functionality affects http only

EXAMPLE
     int main(void)
     {
       CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
	 CURLcode result;
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");

	 /* enable the cookie engine */
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, "");

	 result = curl_easy_perform(curl);

	 if(result == CURLE_OK) {
	   /* extract all known cookies */
	   struct curl_slist *cookies = NULL;
	   result = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_COOKIELIST, &cookies);
	   if(!result && cookies) {
	     /* a linked list of cookies in cookie file format */
	     struct curl_slist *each = cookies;
	     while(each) {
	       printf("%s\n", each->data);
	       each = each->next;
	     }
	     /* we must free these cookies when we are done */
	     curl_slist_free_all(cookies);
	   }
	 }
	 curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
       }
     }
