.SH NAME
CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET \- get the last socket used
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET, long *socket);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
Deprecated since 7.45.0. Use \fICURLINFO_ACTIVESOCKET(3)\fP instead.

Pass a pointer to a long to receive the last socket used by this curl
session. If the socket is no longer valid, \-1 is returned. When you finish
working with the socket, you must call \fIcurl_easy_cleanup(3)\fP as usual and
let libcurl close the socket and cleanup other resources associated with the
handle. This is typically used in combination with
\fICURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY(3)\fP.

NOTE: this API is deprecated since it is not working on win64 where the SOCKET
type is 64 bits large while its \(aqlong\(aq is 32 bits. Use the
\fICURLINFO_ACTIVESOCKET(3)\fP instead, if possible.
.SH PROTOCOLS
This functionality affects all supported protocols
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode res;
    long sockfd; /* does not work on win64! */
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");

    /* Do not do the transfer - only connect to host */
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY, 1L);
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    if(res != CURLE_OK) {
      printf("Error: %s\\n", curl_easy_strerror(res));
      curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
      return 1;
    }

    /* Extract the socket from the curl handle */
    res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET, &sockfd);
    if(!res && sockfd != -1) {
      /* operate on sockfd */
    }

    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}
