.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
.nf
|
||
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
||
|
|
|
||

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
Pass in a pointer to a char pointer and get the last used effective HTTP
|
||
|
|
method.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In cases when you have asked libcurl to follow redirects, the method may not be
|
||
|
|
the same method the first request would use.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The \fBmethodp\fP pointer is NULL or points to private memory. You MUST NOT
|
||
|
|
free \- it gets freed when you call \fIcurl_easy_cleanup(3)\fP on the
|
||
|
|
corresponding curl handle.
