+.TH GNURLINFO_LASTSOCKET 3 "12 Sep 2015" "libcurl 7.44.0" "curl_easy_getinfo options"
+.SH NAME
+CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET \- get the last socket used
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+#include <gnurl/curl.h>
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET, long *socket);
+.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 If the socket is no longer valid, -1 is returned.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 curl_easy_cleanup() 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 'long' is 32 bits. Use the
+\fICURLINFO_ACTIVESOCKET(3)\fP instead, if possible.
+.SH PROTOCOLS
+All
+.SH EXAMPLE
+.nf
+CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
+if(curl) {
+ long sockfd; /* doesn't work on win64! */
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://example.com");
+
+ /* Do not do the transfer - only connect to host */
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY, 1L);
+ res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
+
+ /* Extract the socket from the curl handle */
+ res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET, &sockfd);
+
+ if(res != CURLE_OK) {
+ printf("Error: %s\\n", curl_easy_strerror(res));
+ return 1;
+ }
+}
+.fi
+.SH AVAILABILITY
+Added in 7.15.2
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
