The curldown conversion accidentally replaced daniel@haxx.se with just daniel.se. This reverts back to the proper email address in the curldown docs as well as in a few other stray places where it was incorrect (while unrelated to curldown).

# NAME
|
|
|
|
curl_getenv - return value for environment name
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
char *curl_getenv(const char *name);
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
curl_getenv() is a portable wrapper for the getenv() function, meant to
|
|
emulate its behavior and provide an identical interface for all operating
|
|
systems libcurl builds on (including win32).
|
|
|
|
You must curl_free(3) the returned string when you are done with it.
|
|
|
|
# EXAMPLE
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
int main(void)
|
|
{
|
|
char *width = curl_getenv("COLUMNS");
|
|
if(width) {
|
|
/* it was set! */
|
|
curl_free(width);
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|

|
|
|
|
# AVAILABILITY
|
|
|
|
Always
|
|
|
|
# RETURN VALUE
|
|
|
|
A pointer to a null-terminated string or NULL if it failed to find the
|
|
specified name.
|
|
|
|
# NOTE
|
|
|
|
Under unix operating systems, there is no point in returning an allocated
|
|
memory, although other systems does not work properly if this is not done. The
|
|
unix implementation thus suffers slightly from the drawbacks of other systems.
