# NAME
CURLOPT_DEFAULT_PROTOCOL - default protocol to use if the URL is missing a
scheme name
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_DEFAULT_PROTOCOL,
char *protocol);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
This option tells libcurl to use *protocol* if the URL is missing a scheme
name.
Use one of these protocol (scheme) names:
dict, file, ftp, ftps, gopher, http, https, imap, imaps, ldap, ldaps, pop3,
pop3s, rtsp, scp, sftp, smb, smbs, smtp, smtps, telnet, tftp
An unknown or unsupported protocol causes error
*CURLE_UNSUPPORTED_PROTOCOL* when libcurl parses a URL without a
scheme. Parsing happens when curl_easy_perform(3) or
curl_multi_perform(3) is called. The protocol set supported by libcurl
vary depending on how it was built. Use curl_version_info(3) if you need
a list of protocol names supported by the build of libcurl that you are using.
This option does not change the default proxy protocol (http).
Without this option libcurl would make a guess based on the host, see
CURLOPT_URL(3) for details.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
option.
# DEFAULT
NULL (make a guess based on the host)
# PROTOCOLS
All
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
/* set a URL without a scheme */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "example.com");
/* set the default protocol (scheme) for schemeless URLs */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_DEFAULT_PROTOCOL, "https");
/* Perform the request */
curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
}
~~~
# AVAILABILITY
