- .\" generated by cd2nroff 0.1 from curl_strequal.md
- .TH curl_strequal 3 "2025-01-17" libcurl
- .SH NAME
- curl_strequal \- compare two strings ignoring case
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .nf
- #include <curl/curl.h>
- int curl_strequal(const char *str1, const char *str2);
- .fi
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- The \fIcurl_strequal(3)\fP function compares the two strings \fIstr1\fP and \fIstr2\fP,
- ignoring the case of the characters. It returns a non\-zero (TRUE) integer if
- the strings are identical.
- This function uses plain ASCII based comparisons completely disregarding the
- locale \- contrary to how \fBstrcasecmp\fP and other system case insensitive
- string comparisons usually work.
- This function is provided by libcurl to enable applications to compare strings
- in a truly portable manner. There are no standard portable case insensitive
- string comparison functions. This function works on all platforms.
- .SH PROTOCOLS
- This functionality affects all supported protocols
- .SH EXAMPLE
- .nf
- int main(int argc, char **argv)
- {
- const char *name = "compare";
- if(curl_strequal(name, argv[1]))
- printf("Name and input matches\\n");
- }
- .fi
- .SH AVAILABILITY
- Added in curl 7.1
- .SH RETURN VALUE
- Non\-zero if the strings are identical. Zero if they are not.
- .SH SEE ALSO
- .BR curl_strnequal (3),
- .BR strcasecmp (3),
- .BR strcmp (3)
