CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE(3)                libcurl               CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE(3)

NAME
       CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE - proxy protocol type

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE, long type);

DESCRIPTION
       Pass one of the values below to set the type of the proxy.

              CURLPROXY_HTTP
                     HTTP Proxy. Default.

              CURLPROXY_HTTPS
                     HTTPS Proxy using HTTP/1. (Added in 7.52.0 for OpenSSL,
                     GnuTLS and NSS. Since 7.87.0, it also works for BearSSL,
                     mbedTLS, rustls, Schannel, Secure Transport and wolfSSL.)

              CURLPROXY_HTTPS2
                     HTTPS Proxy and attempt to speak HTTP/2 over it. (Added
                     in 8.1.0)

              CURLPROXY_HTTP_1_0
                     HTTP 1.0 Proxy. This is similar to CURLPROXY_HTTP except
                     it uses HTTP/1.0 for any CONNECT tunneling. It does not
                     change the HTTP version of the actual HTTP requests,
                     controlled by CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION(3).

              CURLPROXY_SOCKS4
                     SOCKS4 Proxy.

              CURLPROXY_SOCKS4A
                     SOCKS4a Proxy. Proxy resolves URL hostname.

              CURLPROXY_SOCKS5
                     SOCKS5 Proxy.

              CURLPROXY_SOCKS5_HOSTNAME
                     SOCKS5 Proxy. Proxy resolves URL hostname.

       Often it is more convenient to specify the proxy type with the scheme
       part of the CURLOPT_PROXY(3) string.
