CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY(3) curl_easy_setopt options CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY(3)
NAME
CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY - private keyfile for HTTPS proxy client cert
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY, char *keyfile);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a null-terminated string as parameter. The string
should be the file name of your private key used for connecting to the
HTTPS proxy. The default format is "PEM" and can be changed with CUR-
LOPT_PROXY_SSLKEYTYPE(3).
(iOS and Mac OS X only) This option is ignored if curl was built
against Secure Transport. Secure Transport expects the private key to
be already present in the keychain or PKCS#12 file containing the cer-
tificate.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting
this option.
DEFAULT
NULL
PROTOCOLS
