💅 GNURLINFO...ECT_TIME_T(3) 💅

okay so bestie, this page is the CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME_T entry in the curl_easy_getinfo options manual, and it's literally here to explain how you get the time until the SSL/SSH handshake is completed ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME_T — get the time until the SSL/SSH handshake is completed 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <gnurl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME_T,
curl_off_t *timep);

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Pass a pointer to a curl_off_t to receive the time, in microseconds, that it took from the start until the SSL/SSH connect/handshake to the remote host was completed 💖

This time is most often very near to the CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME_T(3) time — except for cases such as HTTP pipelining, where the pretransfer time can be delayed due to waits in line for the pipeline and more 😭

When a redirect is followed, the time from each request is added together, no cap 🧚

         res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
         if(CURLE_OK == res) {
           res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME_T, &connect);
           if(CURLE_OK == res) {
             printf("Time: %" CURL_FORMAT_CURL_OFF_T ".%06ld", connect / 1000000,
                    (long)(connect % 1000000));
           }
         }
         /* always cleanup */
