CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE explained

Name

CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE - last response code

Synopsis

 #include <curl/curl.h>   CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE, long *codep);

Description

Pass a pointer to a long to receive the last received HTTP, FTP, SMTP or LDAP (OpenLDAP only) response code. This option was previously known as CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE in libcurl 7.10.7 and earlier. The stored value is zero if no server response code has been received.

Note that a proxy's CONNECT response should be read with CURLINFO_HTTP_CONNECTCODE and not this.

Protocols

This functionality affects ftp, http, ldap and smtp

Example

 int main(void) {   CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();   if(curl) {   CURLcode result;   curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");   result = curl_easy_perform(curl);   if(result == CURLE_OK) {   long response_code;   curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE, &response_code);   }   curl_easy_cleanup(curl);   } }

Notes

The former name, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE, was added in 7.4.1. Support for SMTP responses added in 7.25.0, for OpenLDAP in 7.81.0.

Availability

Added in curl 7.10.8

Return value

curl_easy_getinfo returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.

CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see libcurl-errors.
