NAME

CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH - get entry path in FTP server

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH, char **path);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a pointer to a char pointer to receive a pointer to a string holding the path of the entry path. That is the initial path libcurl ended up in when logging on to the remote FTP server. This stores a NULL as pointer if something is wrong. The path 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.

PROTOCOLS

This functionality affects ftp only

EXAMPLE

int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode res;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp://example.com");
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
if(!res) {
/* extract the entry path */
char *ep = NULL;
res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH, &ep);
if(!res && ep) {
printf("Entry path was: %s\n", ep);
}
}
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
}
