curl_mime_name - set a mime part's name

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_mime_name(curl_mimepart * part, const char * name);

curl_mime_name(3) sets a mime part's name. This is the way HTTP form fields are named.

part is the part's handle to assign a name to.

name points to the null-terminated name string.

The name string is copied into the part, thus the associated storage may safely be released or reused after call. Setting a part's name twice is valid: only the value set by the last call is retained. It is possible to "unname" a part by setting name to NULL.

As long as at least one of HTTP, SMTP or IMAP is enabled. Added in 7.56.0.

CURLE_OK or a CURL error code upon failure.


curl_mime *mime;
curl_mimepart *part;
/* create a mime handle */
mime = curl_mime_init(easy);
/* add a part */
part = curl_mime_addpart(mime);
/* give the part a name */
curl_mime_name(part, "shoe_size");
