|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, char *filename);
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. It should point to
|
|
the file name of your file holding cookie data to read. The cookie data can be
|
|
in either the old Netscape / Mozilla cookie data format or just regular
|
|
HTTP-style headers dumped to a file.
|
|
|
|
It also enables the cookie engine, making libcurl parse and send cookies on
|
|
subsequent requests with this handle.
|
|
|
|
Given an empty or non-existing file or by passing the empty string ("") to
|
|
this option, you can enable the cookie engine without reading any initial
|
|
cookies.
|
|
|
|
This option only \fBreads\fP cookies. To make libcurl write cookies to file,
|
|
see \fICURLOPT_COOKIEJAR(3)\fP.
|
|
|
|
If you use this option multiple times, you just add more files to read.
|
|
Subsequent files will add more cookies.
