         /* we want to use our own read function */
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_READFUNCTION, read_callback);

         /* enable PUT */
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PUT, 1L);

         /* specify target */
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp://example.com/dir/to/newfile");

         /* now specify which pointer to pass to our callback */
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_READDATA, hd_src);
