CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH(3)

CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH(3)curl_easy_setopt options CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH(3)

NAME

     CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH - set HTTP proxy authentication methods to
     try

SYNOPSIS

     #include <curl/curl.h>

     CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL  *handle,  CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH,
     long bitmask);

DESCRIPTION

     Pass a long as parameter, which is set to a bitmask, to tell
     libcurl  which  HTTP authentication method(s) you want it to
     use for your proxy authentication.  If more than one bit  is
     set, libcurl will first query the site to see what authenti-
     cation methods it supports and then pick the  best  one  you
     allow it to use. For some methods, this will induce an extra
     network round-trip. Set the actual name  and  password  with
     the CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD(3) option.

     The bitmask can be constructed by or'ing together  the  bits
     fully  listed  and  described in the CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH(3) man
     page.

DEFAULT

     CURLAUTH_BASIC

PROTOCOLS

       /* use this proxy */
       curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "http://local.example.com:1080");
       /* allow whatever auth the proxy speaks */
       curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH, CURLAUTH_ANY);
       /* set the proxy credentials */
       curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD, "james:007");
       ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
       curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
     }
