-.TH CURLOPT_PRE_PROXY 3 "16 Nov 2016" libcurl libcurl
-.SH NAME
-CURLOPT_PRE_PROXY \- pre-proxy host to use
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-#include <curl/curl.h>
-
-CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PRE_PROXY, char *preproxy);
-.fi
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-Set the \fIpreproxy\fP to use for the upcoming request. The parameter
-should be a char * to a null-terminated string holding the host name or dotted
-numerical IP address. A numerical IPv6 address must be written within
-[brackets].
-
-To specify port number in this string, append :[port] to the end of the host
-name. The proxy's port number may optionally be specified with the separate
-option \fICURLOPT_PROXYPORT(3)\fP. If not specified, libcurl defaults to using
-port 1080 for proxies.
-
-A pre proxy is a SOCKS proxy that curl connects to before it connects to the
-HTTP(S) proxy specified in the \fICURLOPT_PROXY(3)\fP option. The pre proxy
-can only be a SOCKS proxy.
-
-The pre proxy string should be prefixed with [scheme]:// to specify which kind
-of socks is used. Use socks4://, socks4a://, socks5:// or socks5h:// (the last
-one to enable socks5 and asking the proxy to do the resolving, also known as
-\fICURLPROXY_SOCKS5_HOSTNAME\fP type) to request the specific SOCKS version to
-be used. Otherwise SOCKS4 is used as default.
-
-Setting the pre proxy string to "" (an empty string) explicitly disables the
-use of a pre proxy.
-
-The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
-option.
-.SH DEFAULT
-Default is NULL, meaning no pre proxy is used.
-
-When you set a host name to use, do not assume that there is any particular
-single port number used widely for proxies. Specify it!
-.SH PROTOCOLS
-All except file://. Note that some protocols do not work well over proxy.
-.SH EXAMPLE
-.nf
-CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
-if(curl) {
- curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/file.txt");
- curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PRE_PROXY, "socks4://socks-proxy:1080");
- curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "http://proxy:80");
- curl_easy_perform(curl);
-}
-.fi
-.SH AVAILABILITY
-Added in 7.52.0
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-Returns CURLE_OK if proxies are supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or
-CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
-.SH "SEE ALSO"
-.BR CURLOPT_PROXY (3),
-.BR CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL (3)
