.TH CURLOPT_HEADERDATA 3 "May 05, 2017" "libcurl 7.61.1" "curl_easy_setopt options"

.SH NAME
CURLOPT_HEADERDATA \- pointer to pass to header callback
.SH SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HEADERDATA, void *pointer);
.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a \fIpointer\fP to be used to write the header part of the received data
to.

If \fICURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION(3)\fP or \fICURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION(3)\fP is used,
\fIpointer\fP will be passed in to the respective callback.

If neither of those options are set, \fIpointer\fP must be a valid FILE * and
it will be used by a plain fwrite() to write headers to.

{
  struct my_info *i = (struct my_info *)userdata;

  /* now this callback can access the my_info struct */

  return nitems * size;
