.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to your callback function, which should match the prototype
shown above.

\fICURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION(3)\fP replaces the standard debug function used when
\fICURLOPT_VERBOSE(3)\fP is in effect. This callback receives debug
information, as specified in the \fItype\fP argument. This function must
return 0. The \fIdata\fP pointed to by the char * passed to this function is
not null\-terminated, but is exactly of the \fIsize\fP as told by the
\fIsize\fP argument.

The \fIclientp\fP argument is the pointer set with \fICURLOPT_DEBUGDATA(3)\fP.

Available \fBcurl_infotype\fP values:
.IP CURLINFO_TEXT
The data is informational text.
.IP CURLINFO_HEADER_IN
The data is header (or header\-like) data received from the peer.
.IP CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT
The data is header (or header\-like) data sent to the peer.
.IP CURLINFO_DATA_IN
The data is the unprocessed protocol data received from the peer. Even if the
data is encoded or compressed, it is not provided decoded nor decompressed
to this callback. If you need the data in decoded and decompressed form, use
\fICURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION(3)\fP.
.IP CURLINFO_DATA_OUT
The data is protocol data sent to the peer.
.IP CURLINFO_SSL_DATA_OUT
The data is SSL/TLS (binary) data sent to the peer.
.IP CURLINFO_SSL_DATA_IN
The data is SSL/TLS (binary) data received from the peer.

WARNING: This callback may be called with the curl \fIhandle\fP set to an
internal handle. (Added in 8.4.0)

If you need to distinguish your curl \fIhandle\fP from internal handles then
set \fICURLOPT_PRIVATE(3)\fP on your handle.
