Expand a little. - mention the type name of the return code - avoid stating which exact return codes that might be returned, as that varies over time, builds and conditions - avoid stating some always return OK - refer to the manpage documenting all the return codes Closes #15900

# NAME
|
|
|
|
CURLINFO_LOCAL_IP - get local IP address of last connection
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_LOCAL_IP, char **ip);
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Pass a pointer to a char pointer to receive the pointer to a null-terminated
|
|
string holding the IP address of the local end of most recent connection done
|
|
with this **curl** handle. This string may be IPv6 when that is enabled. Note
|
|
that you get a pointer to a memory area that is reused at next request so you
|
|
need to copy the string if you want to keep the information.
|
|
|
|
The **ip** pointer is NULL or points to private memory. You MUST NOT free - it
|
|
gets freed when you call curl_easy_cleanup(3) on the corresponding CURL
|
|
handle.
