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.
