CURLINFO_SSL_ENGINES - Man Page
get an slist of OpenSSL crypto-engines
Synopsis
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_SSL_ENGINES, struct curl_slist **engine_list);
Description
Pass the address of a 'struct curl_slist *' to receive a linked-list of OpenSSL crypto-engines supported. Note that engines are normally implemented in separate dynamic libraries. Hence not all the returned engines may be available at runtime. NOTE: you must call curl_slist_free_all(3) on the list pointer once you are done with it, as libcurl does not free this data for you.
Protocols
This functionality affects all TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.
This option works only with the following TLS backends: OpenSSL
Example
int main(void) { CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); if(curl) { CURLcode res; struct curl_slist *engines; res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_SSL_ENGINES, &engines); if((res == CURLE_OK) && engines) { /* we have a list, free it when done using it */ curl_slist_free_all(engines); } curl_easy_cleanup(curl); } }
Availability
Added in curl 7.12.3
Return Value
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
