.TH curl_version_info 3 "2024-08-02" libcurl
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
curl_version_info \- returns runtime libcurl version info
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.nf
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
curl_version_info_data *curl_version_info(CURLversion age);
|
|
.fi
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
Returns a pointer to a filled in static struct with information about various
|
|
features in the running version of libcurl. \fIage\fP should be set to the
|
|
version of this functionality by the time you write your program. This way,
|
|
libcurl always returns a proper struct that your program understands, while
|
|
programs in the future might get a different struct. \fBCURLVERSION_NOW\fP is
|
|
the most recent one for the library you have installed:
|
|
.nf
|
|
data = curl_version_info(CURLVERSION_NOW);
|
|
.fi
|
|
Applications should use this information to judge if things are possible to do
|
|
or not, instead of using compile\-time checks, as dynamic/DLL libraries can be
|
|
changed independent of applications.
|
|
|
|
This function can alter the returned static data as long as
|
|
\fIcurl_global_init(3)\fP has not been called. It is therefore not thread\-safe
|
|
before libcurl initialization occurs.
|
|
|
|
The curl_version_info_data struct looks like this
|
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
typedef struct {
|
|
CURLversion age; /* see description below */
|

|
|
|
|
\fIage\fP describes what the age of this struct is. The number depends on how
|
|
new the libcurl you are using is. You are however guaranteed to get a struct
|
|
that you have a matching struct for in the header, as you tell libcurl your
|
|
\&"age" with the input argument.
|
|
|
|
\fIversion\fP is just an ascii string for the libcurl version.
|
|
|
|
\fIversion_num\fP is a 24 bit number created like this: <8 bits major number> |
|
|
<8 bits minor number> | <8 bits patch number>. Version 7.9.8 is therefore
|
|
returned as 0x070908.
|
|
|
|
\fIhost\fP is an ascii string showing what host information that this libcurl
|
|
was built for. As discovered by a configure script or set by the build
|
|
environment.
|
|
|
|
\fIfeatures\fP is a bit mask representing available features. It can have none,
|
|
one or more bits set. The use of this field is deprecated: use
|
|
\fIfeature_names\fP instead. The feature names description below lists the
|
|
associated bits.
|
|
|
|
\fIfeature_names\fP is a pointer to an array of string pointers, containing the
|
|
names of the features that libcurl supports. The array is terminated by a NULL
|
|
entry. See the list of features names below.
|
|
|
|
\fIssl_version\fP is an ASCII string for the TLS library name + version used. If
|
|
libcurl has no SSL support, this is NULL. For example "Schannel", "Secure
|
|
Transport" or "OpenSSL/1.1.0g".
|
|
|
|
\fIssl_version_num\fP is always 0.
|
|
|
|
\fIlibz_version\fP is an ASCII string (there is no numerical version). If
|
|
libcurl has no libz support, this is NULL.
|
|
|
|
\fIprotocols\fP is a pointer to an array of char * pointers, containing the
|
|
names protocols that libcurl supports (using lowercase letters). The protocol
|
|
names are the same as would be used in URLs. The array is terminated by a NULL
|
|
entry.
