NAME

6       CURLOPT_SSLKEYTYPE - set type of the private key file
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <curl/curl.h>
10
11       CURLcode   curl_easy_setopt(CURL   *handle,   CURLOPT_SSLKEYTYPE,  char
12       *type);

DESCRIPTION

15       Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string  as  parameter.  The  string
16       should  be the format of your private key. Supported formats are "PEM",
17       "DER" and "ENG".
18
19       The format "ENG" enables you to load the  private  key  from  a  crypto
20       engine.  In this case CURLOPT_SSLKEY(3) is used as an identifier passed
21       to  the  engine.  You  have  to  set  the  crypto  engine   with   CUR‐
22       LOPT_SSLENGINE(3).   "DER"  format  key  file  currently  does not work
23       because of a bug in OpenSSL.
24
25       The application does not have to keep the string around  after  setting
26       this option.
