NAME¶

curl_mime_name - set a mime part's name

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_mime_name(curl_mimepart *part, const char *name);

DESCRIPTION¶

curl_mime_name(3) sets a mime part's name. This is the way HTTP form fields are named.

part is the part's handle to assign a name to.

name points to the null-terminated name string.

The name string is copied into the part, thus the associated storage may safely be released or reused after call. Setting a part's name multiple times is valid: only the value set by the last call is retained. It is possible to reset the name of a part by setting name to NULL.

PROTOCOLS¶

This functionality affects http, imap and smtp

EXAMPLE¶

int main(void)
{


  curl_mime *mime;


  curl_mimepart *part;


  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();


  if(curl) {


    /* create a mime handle */


    mime = curl_mime_init(curl);


    /* add a part */


    part = curl_mime_addpart(mime);


    /* give the part a name */


    curl_mime_name(part, "shoe_size");


  }
}

AVAILABILITY¶

Added in curl 7.56.0

RETURN VALUE¶

This function returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.

CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see libcurl-errors(3). If CURLOPT_ERRORBUFFER(3) was set with curl_easy_setopt(3) there can be an error message stored in the error buffer when non-zero is returned.
