curl_strequal(3) Library Functions Manual curl_strequal(3) NAME curl_strequal - compare two strings ignoring case SYNOPSIS #include <curl/curl.h> int curl_strequal(const char *str1, const char *str2); DESCRIPTION The curl_strequal(3) function compares the two strings str1 and str2, ignoring the case of the characters. It returns a non-zero (TRUE) inte- ger if the strings are identical. This function uses plain ASCII based comparisons completely disregard- ing the locale - contrary to how strcasecmp and other system case in- sensitive string comparisons usually work. This function is provided by libcurl to enable applications to compare strings in a truly portable manner. There are no standard portable case insensitive string comparison functions. This function works on all platforms. PROTOCOLS This functionality affects all supported protocols EXAMPLE int main(int argc, char **argv) { const char *name = "compare"; if(curl_strequal(name, argv[1])) printf("Name and input matches\n"); } AVAILABILITY Added in curl 7.1 RETURN VALUE Non-zero if the strings are identical. Zero if they are not. SEE ALSO curl_strnequal(3), strcasecmp(3), strcmp(3) libcurl 2025-06-03 curl_strequal(3)
