NAME

6       CURLOPT_ABSTRACT_UNIX_SOCKET - set an abstract Unix domain socket
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <curl/curl.h>
10
11       CURLcode  curl_easy_setopt(CURL  *handle, CURLOPT_ABSTRACT_UNIX_SOCKET,
12       char *path);
13

DESCRIPTION

15       Enables the use of an abstract Unix domain socket instead of establish‐
16       ing  a  TCP connection to a host. The parameter should be a char * to a
17       null-terminated string holding the path of the socket. The path will be
18       set  to  path  prefixed  by a NULL byte (this is the convention for ab‐
19       stract sockets, however it should be stressed that the path  passed  to
20       this function should not contain a leading NULL).
21
22       On  non-supporting  platforms, the abstract address will be interpreted
23       as an empty string and fail gracefully, generating a run-time error.
24
25       This option shares the same semantics as CURLOPT_UNIX_SOCKET_PATH(3) in
26       which  documentation  more  details can be found. Internally, these two
27       options share the same storage and therefore only one of  them  can  be
28       set per handle.

DEFAULT

32       Default is NULL.
