NAME

       CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD - user name and password to use for proxy authentication

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD, char *userpwd);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a char * as parameter, which should be [user name]:[password] to use for the connection to the HTTP
       proxy. Both the name and the password are URL decoded before used, so to include for example a  colon  in
       the  user  name  you  should  encode  it  as  %3A. (This is different to how CURLOPT_USERPWD(3) is used -
       beware.)

       Use CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH(3) to specify the authentication method.

       The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.

DEFAULT

       This is NULL by default.

PROTOCOLS

       Used with all protocols that can use a proxy

EXAMPLE

       int main(void)
       {
         CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
         if(curl) {
           CURLcode res;
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/foo.bin");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "http://localhost:8080");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD, "clark%20kent:superman");
           res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
           curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
         }
       }

AVAILABILITY

       Always

RETURN VALUE

       Returns CURLE_OK if proxies are supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY  if  there
       was insufficient heap space.
