NAME

6       CURLOPT_ABSTRACT_UNIX_SOCKET - 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 runtime 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.
