.TH CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH 3 "November 04, 2020" "libcurl 7.78.0" "curl_easy_getinfo options"

.SH NAME
CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH \- get entry path in FTP server
.SH SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH, char **path);
.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a char pointer to receive a pointer to a string holding the
path of the entry path. That is the initial path libcurl ended up in when
logging on to the remote FTP server. This stores a NULL as pointer if
something is wrong.

The \fBpath\fP pointer will be NULL or pointing to private memory you MUST NOT
free - it gets freed when you call \fIcurl_easy_cleanup(3)\fP on the
corresponding CURL handle.
.SH PROTOCOLS
FTP(S) and SFTP
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp://example.com");

  res = curl_easy_perform(curl);

  if(!res) {
    /* extract the entry path */
    char *ep = NULL;
    res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH, &ep);
    if(!res && ep) {
      printf("Entry path was: %s\\n", ep);
    }
  }
  curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
.fi
