# NAME
|
|
|
|
CURLOPT_REQUEST_TARGET - alternative target for this request
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_REQUEST_TARGET, string);
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Pass a char pointer to string which libcurl uses in the upcoming request
|
|
instead of the path as extracted from the URL.
|
|
|
|
libcurl passes on the verbatim string in its request without any filter or
|
|
other safe guards. That includes white space and control characters.
|
|
|
|
Using this option multiple times makes the last set string override the
|
|
previous ones. Set it to NULL to disable its use again.
|
|
|
|
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
# DEFAULT
|
|
|
|
NULL
