# NAME

CURLINFO_LOCAL_PORT - latest local port number

# SYNOPSIS

~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_LOCAL_PORT, long *portp);
~~~

# DESCRIPTION

Pass a pointer to a long to receive the local port number of the most recent
connection done with this **curl** handle.

If the connection was done using QUIC, the port number is a UDP port number,
otherwise it is a TCP port number.

If no connection was established or if the protocol does not use ports, -1
is returned.

# %PROTOCOLS%

# EXAMPLE

~~~c
int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl;
  CURLcode result;

  curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
    result = curl_easy_perform(curl);

    if(result == CURLE_OK) {
      long port;
      result = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_LOCAL_PORT, &port);

      if(result == CURLE_OK) {
        printf("We used local port: %ld\n", port);
      }
    }
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
  return 0;
}
~~~

# RETURN VALUE

curl_easy_getinfo(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.
