NAME

       CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD - username and password to use for proxy authentication

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD, char *userpwd);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a  char  pointer  as parameter, which should be [username]:[password] to use for the
       connection to the HTTP proxy. Both the name and the password are URL decoded before  used,
       so  to  include  for example a colon in the username you should encode it as %3A. (This is
       different to how CURLOPT_USERPWD(3) is used - beware.)

       Use CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH(3) to specify the authentication method.

       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

       NULL

PROTOCOLS

       This functionality affects all supported protocols

EXAMPLE

       int main(void)
       {
         CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
         if(curl) {
           CURLcode res;
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/foo.bin");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "http://localhost:8080");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD, "clark%20kent:superman");
           res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
           curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
         }
       }

AVAILABILITY

       Added in curl 7.1

RETURN VALUE

       Returns   CURLE_OK   if   proxies   are   supported,   CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION   if  not,  or
       CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
