CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION explained

Name

CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION - allowed GSS-API delegation

Synopsis

#include <curl/curl.h>
 
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION, long level);

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();

    /* delegate if okayed by policy */
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION,
                     (long)CURLGSSAPI_DELEGATION_POLICY_FLAG);
