NAME

       CURLOPT_SSLENGINE - SSL engine identifier

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSLENGINE, char *id);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a  pointer  to  a  null-terminated string as parameter. It is used as the identifier for the crypto
       engine you want to use for your private key.

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

       All TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.

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_SSLENGINE, "dynamic");
           res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
           curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
         }
       }

AVAILABILITY

       Only if the SSL backend is OpenSSL built with engine support.

RETURN VALUE

       CURLE_OK - Engine found.

       CURLE_SSL_ENGINE_NOTFOUND - Engine not found, or OpenSSL was not built with engine support.

       CURLE_SSL_ENGINE_INITFAILED - Engine found but initialization failed.

       CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN - Option not built in, OpenSSL is not the SSL backend.

       CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION - Option not recognized.

       CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY - Insufficient heap space.
