CURLOPT_CURLU - URL in CURLU * format

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_CURLU, void *pointer);

Pass in a pointer to the URL to work with. The parameter should be a CURLU *. Setting CURLOPT_CURLU(3) will explicitly override CURLOPT_URL(3).

CURLOPT_URL(3) or CURLOPT_CURLU(3) must be set before a transfer is started.

libcurl will use this handle and its contents read-only and will not change its contents. An application can update the contents of the URL handle after a transfer is done and if the same handle is then used in a subsequent request the updated contents will then be used.

The default value of this parameter is NULL.

  CURL *handle = curl_easy_init();
  CURLU *urlp = curl_url();
  int res = 0;

    res = curl_url_set(urlp, CURLUPART_URL, "https://example.com", 0);

    curl_easy_setopt(handle, CURLOPT_CURLU, urlp);

    ret = curl_easy_perform(handle);

    curl_url_cleanup(urlp);
    curl_easy_cleanup(handle);
  }
