NAME

       CURLINFO_REFERER - get the used referrer request header

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_REFERER, char **hdrp);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  in  a  pointer to a char pointer and get the referrer header used in the most recent
       request.

       The hdrp pointer is NULL or points to private memory you MUST NOT free  -  it  gets  freed
       when you call curl_easy_cleanup(3) on the corresponding CURL handle.
