NAME
CURLINFO_ACTIVESOCKET - get the active socket
SYNOPSIS
#include <
curl/
curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_ACTIVESOCKET,
curl_socket_t *socket);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a curl_socket_t to receive the active socket used by this
curl session. If the socket is no longer valid,
CURL_SOCKET_BAD is
returned. When you finish working with the socket, you must call
curl_easy_cleanup(3) as usual on the easy handle and let libcurl close
the socket and cleanup other resources associated with the handle. This is
typically used in combination with
CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY(3).
This option was added as a replacement for
CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET(3) since
that one isn't working on all platforms.
