CURLOPT_NETRC_FILE3
Filename to read .netrc info from
Usage
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_NETRC_FILE, char *file);
Overview
Pass a char pointer as parameter, pointing to a null-terminated string containing the full path name to the file you want libcurl to use as .netrc file. If this option is omitted, and CURLOPT_NETRC(3) is set, libcurl checks for a .netrc file in the current user's home directory.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.
Default
NULL
Protocols
All

curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_NETRC_FILE, "/tmp/magic-netrc");
ret = curl_easy_perform(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.
