.SH NAME
CURLOPT_PRE_PROXY \- pre\-proxy host to use
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PRE_PROXY, char *preproxy);
.fi
.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.
When you set a hostname to use, do not assume that there is any particular
single port number used widely for proxies. Specify it.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
option.
