-.TH curl_easy_init 3 "31 Jan 2001" "libcurl 7.9.4" "libcurl Manual"
-.SH NAME
-curl_easy_getinfo - Extract information from a curl session (added in 7.4)
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B #include <curl/curl.h>
-.sp
-.BI "CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *curl, CURLINFO info, ... );"
-.ad
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-Request internal information from the curl session with this function. The
-third argument
-.B MUST
-be a pointer to a long, a pointer to a char * or a pointer to a double (as
-this documentation describes further down). The data pointed-to will be
-filled in accordingly and can be relied upon only if the function returns
-CURLE_OK. This function is intended to get used *AFTER* a performed transfer,
-all results from this function are undefined until the transfer is completed.
-.SH AVAILABLE INFORMATION
-These are informations that can be extracted:
-.TP 0.8i
-.B CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL
-Pass a pointer to a 'char *' to receive the last used effective URL.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE
-Pass a pointer to a long to receive the last received HTTP code.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_FILETIME
-Pass a pointer to a long to receive the remote time of the retrieved
-document. If you get -1, it can be because of many reasons (unknown, the
-server hides it or the server doesn't support the command that tells document
-time etc) and the time of the document is unknown. Note that you must tell the
-server to collect this information before the transfer is made, by using the
-CURLOPT_FILETIME option to \fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP. (Added in 7.5)
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_TOTAL_TIME
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the total transaction time in seconds
-for the previous transfer.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_NAMELOOKUP_TIME
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the time, in seconds, it took from the
-start until the name resolving was completed.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_CONNECT_TIME
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the time, in seconds, it took from the
-start until the connect to the remote host (or proxy) was completed.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the time, in seconds, it took from the
-start until the file transfer is just about to begin. This includes all
-pre-transfer commands and negotiations that are specific to the particular
-protocol(s) involved.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_STARTTRANSFER_TIME
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the time, in seconds, it took from the
-start until the first byte is just about to be transfered. This includes
-CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME and also the time the server needs to calculate
-the result.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_SIZE_UPLOAD
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the total amount of bytes that were
-uploaded.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_SIZE_DOWNLOAD
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the total amount of bytes that were
-downloaded.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_SPEED_DOWNLOAD
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the average download speed that curl
-measured for the complete download.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_SPEED_UPLOAD
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the average upload speed that curl
-measured for the complete upload.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_HEADER_SIZE
-Pass a pointer to a long to receive the total size of all the headers
-received.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_REQUEST_SIZE
-Pass a pointer to a long to receive the total size of the issued
-requests. This is so far only for HTTP requests. Note that this may be more
-than one request if FOLLOWLOCATION is true.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_SSL_VERIFYRESULT
-Pass a pointer to a long to receive the result of the certification
-verification that was requested (using the CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER option to
-curl_easy_setopt). (Added in 7.4.2)
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_DOWNLOAD
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the content-length of the download. This

-.B CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_UPLOAD
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the specified size of the upload.
-(Added in 7.6.1)
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_CONTENT_TYPE
-Pass a pointer to a 'char *' to receive the content-type of the downloaded
-object. This is the value read from the Content-Type: field. If you get NULL,
-it means that the server didn't send a valid Content-Type header or that the
-protocol used doesn't support this. (Added in 7.9.4)
