SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SERVICE_NAME, char *name);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a char pointer as parameter to a string holding the name of the service for DIGEST-MD5, SPNEGO and Kerberos 5 authentication mechanisms. The default service names are "ftp", "HTTP", "imap", "ldap", "pop" and "smtp". This option allows you to change them.

The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.

    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SERVICE_NAME, "custom");
    ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
  }
}
