.TH CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH 3 "12 Sep 2015" libcurl libcurl
.SH NAME
CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH \- get entry path in FTP server
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH, char **path);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a char pointer to receive a pointer to a string holding the
path of the entry path. That is the initial path libcurl ended up in when
logging on to the remote FTP server. This stores a NULL as pointer if
something is wrong.
The \fBpath\fP pointer is NULL or points to private memory. You MUST NOT free
- it gets freed when you call \fIcurl_easy_cleanup(3)\fP on the corresponding
CURL handle.
.SH PROTOCOLS
FTP(S) and SFTP
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp://example.com");
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
if(!res) {
/* extract the entry path */
char *ep = NULL;
res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH, &ep);
if(!res && ep) {
printf("Entry path was: %s\\n", ep);
}
}
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
.fi
.SH AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.15.4. Works for SFTP since 7.21.4
