CURLINFO_RTSP_SERVER_CSEQ(3)

CURLINFO_RTSP_SERVER_CSEQ3

Next rtsp server cseq

Usage

#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_RTSP_SERVER_CSEQ,
                           long *cseq);

Overview

Pass a pointer to a long to receive the next CSeq that is expected to be used by the application.

Listening for server initiated requests is not implemented.

Applications wishing to resume an RTSP session on another connection should retrieve this info before closing the active connection.

Protocols

This functionality affects rtsp only

Examples

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode result;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "rtsp://rtsp.example.com");
    result = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    if(result == CURLE_OK) {
      long cseq;
      curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_RTSP_SERVER_CSEQ, &cseq);
    }
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}

Return value

curl_easy_getinfo(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.

CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see libcurl-errors(3).
