# NAME
|
|
|
|
CURLOPT_EGDSOCKET - EGD socket path
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_EGDSOCKET, char *path);
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Deprecated option. It serves no purpose anymore.
|
|
|
|
Pass a char pointer to the null-terminated path name to the Entropy Gathering
|
|
Daemon socket. It is used to seed the random engine for TLS.
|
|
|
|
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
# DEFAULT
|
|
|
|
NULL
|
|
|
|
# PROTOCOLS
|
|
|
|
All TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.
|
|
|
|
# EXAMPLE
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
int main(void)
|
|
{
|
|
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
|
|
if(curl) {
|
|
CURLcode res;
|
|
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
|
|
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_EGDSOCKET, "/var/egd.socket");
|
|
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
|
|
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
# AVAILABILITY
|
|
|
|
If built with TLS enabled. Only the OpenSSL backend uses this, and only with
|
|
OpenSSL versions before 1.1.0.
|
|
|
|
This option was deprecated in 7.84.0.
|
|
|
|
# RETURN VALUE
|
|
|
|
Returns CURLE_OK if TLS is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or
|
|
CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
