NAME

6       CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH - get entry path in FTP server
7

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

14       Pass a pointer to a char pointer to receive a pointer to a string hold‐
15       ing the path of the entry path. That is the initial path libcurl  ended
16       up  in  when logging on to the remote FTP server. This stores a NULL as
17       pointer if something is wrong.
18
19       The path pointer will be NULL or pointing to private  memory  you  MUST
20       NOT free - it gets freed when you call curl_easy_cleanup(3) on the cor‐
21       responding CURL handle.
