CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT(3)

CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT3

Account info for ftp

Usage

#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT, char *account);

Overview

Pass a pointer to a null-terminated string (or NULL to disable). When an FTP server asks for "account data" after user name and password has been provided, this data is sent off using the ACCT command.

The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.

Default

NULL

Protocols

FTP

Examples

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode res;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp://example.com/foo.bin");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT, "human-resources");
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}

Return value

Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
