NAME

       CURLINFO_ACTIVESOCKET - get the active socket

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_ACTIVESOCKET,
                                  curl_socket_t *socket);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a pointer to a curl_socket_t to receive the active socket used by this curl session.
       If the socket is no longer valid, CURL_SOCKET_BAD is returned.  When  you  finish  working
       with  the  socket,  you must call curl_easy_cleanup(3) as usual on the easy handle and let
       libcurl close the socket and cleanup other resources associated with the handle.  This  is
       typically used in combination with CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY(3).

       This  option  was  added  as a replacement for CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET(3) since that one isn't
       working on all platforms.
