# NAME
CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_USERNAME - username to use for TLS authentication
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_USERNAME, char *user);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
Deprecated option. It serves no purpose anymore.
Pass a char pointer as parameter, which should point to the null-terminated
username to use for the TLS authentication method specified with the
CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_TYPE(3) option. Requires that the CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_PASSWORD(3)
option also be set.
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.
This feature relies on TLS-SRP which does not work with TLS 1.3.
# DEFAULT
NULL
# DEPRECATED
This option was deprecated in 8.22.0.
# %PROTOCOLS%
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode result;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_TYPE, "SRP");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_USERNAME, "user");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_PASSWORD, "secret");
result = curl_easy_perform(curl);
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
}
~~~
# %AVAILABILITY%
# RETURN VALUE
curl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.
CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see
libcurl-errors(3).
