NAME

       CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLCERTTYPE - type of the proxy client SSL certificate

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLCERTTYPE, char *type);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a  pointer to a null-terminated string as parameter. The string should be the format of your client
       certificate used when connecting to an HTTPS proxy.

       Supported formats are "PEM" and "DER", except with Secure Transport or Schannel. OpenSSL (versions  0.9.3
       and  later),  Secure Transport (on iOS 5 or later, or macOS 10.7 or later) and Schannel support "P12" for
       PKCS#12-encoded files.

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

       Using this option multiple times makes the last set string override the previous ones. Set it to NULL  to
       disable its use again.

DEFAULT

       "PEM"

PROTOCOLS

       This functionality affects all TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.

       This  option  works  only  with  the following TLS backends: GnuTLS, OpenSSL, Schannel, Secure Transport,
       mbedTLS and wolfSSL

EXAMPLE

       int main(void)
       {
         CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
         if(curl) {
           CURLcode res;
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "https://proxy");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLCERT, "client.pem");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLCERTTYPE, "PEM");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY, "key.pem");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_KEYPASSWD, "s3cret");
           res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
           curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
         }
       }
