CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_METHOD(3) libcurl CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_METHOD(3)
NAME
CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_METHOD - get the last used HTTP method
SYNOPSIS
#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 corre-
sponding CURL handle.
PROTOCOLS
HTTP(S)
EXAMPLE
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode res;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
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);
}
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.72.0
