CURLINFO_CAINFO(3) Library Functions Manual CURLINFO_CAINFO(3)
NAME
CURLINFO_CAINFO - get the default built-in CA certificate path
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_CAINFO, char **path);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a char pointer to receive the pointer to a null-terminated string holding the default built-in path used for the CURLOPT_CAINFO(3) option unless set by the user. Note that in a situation where libcurl has been built to support multiple TLS libraries, this option might return a string even if the specific TLS library currently set to be used does not support CURLOPT_CAINFO(3). This is a path identifying a single file containing CA certificates. The path pointer is set to NULL if there is no default path.
PROTOCOLS
This functionality affects all TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc. All TLS backends support this option.
EXAMPLE
int main(void) { CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); if(curl) { char *cainfo = NULL; curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_CAINFO, &cainfo); if(cainfo) { printf("default ca info path: %s\n", cainfo); } curl_easy_cleanup(curl); } }
AVAILABILITY
Added in curl 7.84.0
RETURN VALUE
curl_easy_getinfo(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error. CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see libcurl-errors(3).
