+# NAME
+
+CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_METHOD - get the last used HTTP method
+
+# SYNOPSIS
+
+~~~c
+#include <curl/curl.h>
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_METHOD,
+                           char **methodp);
+~~~
+
+# DESCRIPTION
+
+Pass in a pointer to a char pointer and get the last used effective HTTP
+method.
+
+In cases when you have asked libcurl to follow redirects, the method may not be
+the same method the first request would use.
+
+The **methodp** pointer is NULL or points to private memory. You MUST NOT
+free - it gets freed when you call curl_easy_cleanup(3) on the
+corresponding CURL handle.
+
+# PROTOCOLS

+    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "data");
+    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1L);
+    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
+    if(res == CURLE_OK) {
+      char *method = NULL;
+      curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_METHOD, &method);
+      if(method)
+        printf("Redirected to method: %s\n", method);
