It will be used to +set a cookie in the HTTP request. The format of the string should be +NAME=CONTENTS, where NAME is the cookie name and CONTENTS is what the cookie +should contain. + +If you need to set multiple cookies, set them all using a single option +concatenated like this: "name1=content1; name2=content2;" etc. + +This option sets the cookie header explicitly in the outgoing request(s). If +multiple requests are done due to authentication, followed redirections or +similar, they will all get this cookie passed on. + +Using this option multiple times will only make the latest string override the +previous ones. + +This option will not enable the cookie engine. Use \fICURLOPT_COOKIEFILE(3)\fP +or \fICURLOPT_COOKIEJAR(3)\fP to enable parsing and sending cookies +automatically. +.SH DEFAULT +NULL, no cookies +.SH PROTOCOLS +HTTP +.SH EXAMPLE +TODO +.SH AVAILABILITY +If HTTP is enabled +.SH RETURN VALUE +Returns CURLE_OK if HTTP is enabled, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE "(3), " CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR "(3), " +.BR CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER "(3), " |
