NAME

curl_easy_getinfo - extract information from a curl handle

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *curl, CURLINFO info, ... );

DESCRIPTION

Get the info kept in the curl handle. The third argument MUST be pointing to the specific type of the used option which is documented in each man page of the info option. The data is stored accordingly and can be relied upon only if this function returns CURLE_OK. Use this function after a performed transfer if you want to get transfer related data.

You should not free the memory returned by this function unless it is explicitly mentioned below.

CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME

CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME(3) and CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME_T(3). The time it took from the start until the SSL connect/handshake with the remote host was completed. (Added in 7.19.0) The latter is the integer version (measuring microseconds). (Added in 7.60.0)

CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME

CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME(3) and CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME_T(3). The time it took from the start until the file transfer is just about to begin. This includes all pre-transfer commands and negotiations that are specific to the particular protocol(s) involved.

CURLINFO_STARTTRANSFER_TIME

CURLINFO_REDIRECT_TIME

CURLINFO_REDIRECT_TIME(3) and CURLINFO_REDIRECT_TIME_T(3). The time it took for all redirection steps include name lookup, connect, pretransfer and transfer before final transaction was started. So, this is zero if no redirection took place.

EXAMPLE

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

    if(CURLE_OK == res) {
      char *ct;
      /* ask for the content-type */
      res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_CONTENT_TYPE, &ct);

      if((CURLE_OK == res) && ct)
        printf("We received Content-Type: %s\n", ct);
    }

    /* always cleanup */
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}

AVAILABILITY

Added in 7.4.1

RETURN VALUE

If the operation was successful, CURLE_OK is returned. Otherwise an appropriate error code is returned.
