NAME

CURLINFO_ACTIVESOCKET - get the active socket

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_ACTIVESOCKET,   curl_socket_t *socket);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a pointer to a curl_socket_t to receive the active socket used by this curl session. If the socket is no longer valid, CURL_SOCKET_BAD is returned. When you finish working with the socket, you must call curl_easy_cleanup(3) as usual on the easy handle and let libcurl close the socket and cleanup other resources associated with the handle. This is typically used in combination with CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY.

This option was added as a replacement for CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET since that one isn't working on all platforms.
