- generate AVAILABILITY manpage sections automatically - for consistent wording - allows us to double-check against other documumentation (symbols-in-versions etc) - enables proper automation/scripting based on this data - lots of them were wrong or missing in the manpages - several of them repeated (sometimes mismatching) backend support info Add test 1488 to verify "added-in" version numbers against symbols-in-versions.

NAME
curl_easy_getinfo - extract information from a curl handle
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *curl, CURLINFO info, ... );
DESCRIPTION
Get the info kept in the curl handle. The third argument MUST be pointing to the specific type of the used option which is documented in each man page of the info option. The data is stored accordingly and can be relied upon only if this function returns CURLE_OK. Use this function after a performed transfer if you want to get transfer related data.
You should not free the memory returned by this function unless it is explicitly mentioned below.

EXAMPLE
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode res;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://www.example.com/");
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
if(CURLE_OK == res) {
char *ct;
/* ask for the content-type */
res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_CONTENT_TYPE, &ct);
if((CURLE_OK == res) && ct)
printf("We received Content-Type: %s\n", ct);
}
/* always cleanup */

}
RETURN VALUE
If the operation was successful, CURLE_OK is returned. Otherwise an appropriate error code is returned.
