.SH NAME
CURLOPT_HEADERDATA \- pointer to pass to header callback
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HEADERDATA, void *pointer);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a \fIpointer\fP to be used to write the header part of the received data
to.

If \fICURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION(3)\fP or \fICURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION(3)\fP is used,
\fIpointer\fP is passed in to the respective callback.

If neither of those options are set, \fIpointer\fP must be a valid FILE * and
it is used by a plain fwrite() to write headers to.

If you are using libcurl as a win32 DLL, you \fBMUST\fP use a
\fICURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION(3)\fP or \fICURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION(3)\fP if you set
this option or you might experience crashes.

{
  struct my_info *i = userdata;
  printf("shoe size: %d\\n", i->shoesize);
  /* now this callback can access the my_info struct */

  return nitems * size;
}

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    struct my_info my = { 10, "the cookies are in the cupboard" };

    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION, header_callback);

    /* pass in custom data to the callback */
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_HEADERDATA, &my);
