CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT(3)

NAME
CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT - account info for FTP

SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT, char *account);

DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a null-terminated string (or NULL to disable). When an FTP server asks for "account data" after username and password has been provided, this data is sent off using the ACCT command.

The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.

Using this option multiple times makes the last set string override the previous ones. Set it to NULL to disable its use again.

DEFAULT
NULL

PROTOCOLS
This functionality affects ftp only

EXAMPLE
int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode result;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp://example.com/foo.bin");

    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT, "human-resources");

    result = curl_easy_perform(curl);

    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}

AVAILABILITY
Added in curl 7.13.0
