       static int hostkeycb(void *clientp,   /* CURLOPT_SSH_HOSTKEYDATA */
                            int keytype,     /* CURLKHTYPE */
                            const char *key, /* host key to check */
                            size_t keylen)   /* length of the key */
       {
         /* 'clientp' points to the callback_data struct */
         /* investigate the situation and return the correct value */
         return CURLKHMATCH_OK;
       }

       int main(void)
       {
         CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
         if(curl) {
           struct mine callback_data;
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "sftp://example.com/thisfile.txt");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSH_HOSTKEYFUNCTION, hostkeycb);
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSH_HOSTKEYDATA, &callback_data);
