CURLOPT_RTSP_SESSION_ID(3) Library Functions Manual
NAME
CURLOPT_RTSP_SESSION_ID - RTSP session ID
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_RTSP_SESSION_ID, char *id);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a char pointer as a parameter to set the value of the current RTSP
Session ID for the handle. Useful for resuming an in-progress session.
Once this value is set to any non-NULL value, libcurl returns
CURLE_RTSP_SESSION_ERROR if ID received from the server does not match.
If unset (or set to NULL), libcurl automatically sets the ID the first
time the server sets it in a response.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting
this option.
Using this option multiple times makes the last set string override the
previous ones. Set it to NULL to disable its use again.
DEFAULT
NULL
PROTOCOLS
This functionality affects rtsp only

curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_RTSP_SESSION_ID, prev_id);
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
}
