How about CURLINFO_COOKIELIST?? That gets you a linked list of all cookies
curl knows about.

out of it?
I wouldn't know a public method if it jumped up and bit me. It's been a
while since I did any C, but what I see in the curl.h include file is:
struct curl_slist {
char *data;
struct curl_slist *next;
};
so I'm thinking if you have a pointer 'p' to that struct, then after calling
curl_easy_getinfo, you'd pick up your first cookie from p-data. To get to
the next cookie, something like p=p-next gets you your next cookie.
Lather, rinse, repeat until p-next is null. Or something like that...
Like I said, it's been awhile, so don't flame me on syntax... :)

Question about cookies
Is it possible to get a list of cookies from the return header so that I can tokenize it and record them in my application. Currently I'm using a CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION and CURLOPT_VERBOSE to retrieve the header and tokenize and I'm wondering if there is a more elegant and faster way to do this?
