NAME

       CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL - tunnel through HTTP proxy

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL, long tunnel);

DESCRIPTION

       Set  the  parameter  to  1  to  make libcurl tunnel all operations through the HTTP proxy. There is a big
       difference between using a proxy and to tunnel through it.  If  you  don't  know  what  this  means,  you
       probably don't want this tunneling option.

       Tunneling essentially means that a CONNECT is sent to the proxy, asking it to connect to a remote host on
       a specific port number and then the traffic is just passed through the proxy. Proxies tend  to  whitelist
       specific port numbers it allows CONNECT requests to and often only port 80 and 443 are allowed.

       When using this, it only makes sense to use CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE(3) set to a HTTP proxy.
