.SH SYNOPSIS

|
|
.nf
|
|
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Set the \fIpreproxy\fP to use for the upcoming request. The parameter should be a
|
|
|
|
char * to a null\-terminated string holding the hostname or dotted numerical IP
|
|
|
|
address. A numerical IPv6 address must be written within [brackets].
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To specify port number in this string, append :[port] to the end of the host
|
|
|
|
name. The proxy\(aqs port number may optionally be specified with the separate
|
|
|
|
option \fICURLOPT_PROXYPORT(3)\fP. If not specified, libcurl defaults to using
|
|
|
|
port 1080 for proxies.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A pre proxy is a SOCKS proxy that curl connects to before it connects to the
|
|
|
|
HTTP(S) proxy specified in the \fICURLOPT_PROXY(3)\fP option. The pre proxy
|
|
|
|
can only be a SOCKS proxy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The pre proxy string should be prefixed with [scheme]:// to specify which kind
|
|
|
|
of socks is used. Use socks4://, socks4a://, socks5:// or socks5h:// (the last
|
|
|
|
one to enable socks5 and asking the proxy to do the resolving, also known as
|
|
|
|
\fICURLPROXY_SOCKS5_HOSTNAME\fP type) to request the specific SOCKS version to
|
|
|
|
be used. Otherwise SOCKS4 is used as default.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setting the pre proxy string to "" (an empty string) explicitly disables the
|
|
|
|
use of a pre proxy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
|
|
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
.SH DEFAULT
|
|
|
|
Default is NULL, meaning no pre proxy is used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When you set a hostname to use, do not assume that there is any particular
|
|
|
|
single port number used widely for proxies. Specify it!
