CURLOPT_HEADERDATA(3) libcurl CURLOPT_HEADERDATA(3)
NAME
CURLOPT_HEADERDATA - pointer to pass to header callback
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HEADERDATA, void *pointer);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to be used to write the header part of the received data
to.
If CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION(3) or CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION(3) is used,
pointer is passed in to the respective callback.
If neither of those options are set, pointer must be a valid FILE * and
it is used by a plain fwrite() to write headers to.
If you are using libcurl as a win32 DLL, you MUST use a CURLOPT_WRITE-
FUNCTION(3) or CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION(3) if you set this option or you
might experience crashes.
DEFAULT
NULL

EXAMPLE
struct my_info {

char *secret;
};
static size_t header_callback(char *buffer, size_t size,
size_t nitems, void *userdata)
{
struct my_info *i = (struct my_info *)userdata;
/* now this callback can access the my_info struct */
return nitems * size;
}
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
struct my_info my = { 10, "the cookies are in the cupboard" };
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION, header_callback);
/* pass in custom data to the callback */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_HEADERDATA, &my);
