.TH curl_easy_unescape 3 "7 April 2006" "libcurl 7.15.4" "libcurl Manual"
.SH NAME
curl_easy_unescape - URL decodes the given string
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B #include <curl/curl.h>
.sp
.BI "char *curl_easy_unescape( CURL *" curl ", char *" url ", int "inlength
.BI ", int *" outlength " );"
.ad
.SH DESCRIPTION
This function converts the given URL encoded input string to a "plain string"
and returns that in an allocated memory area. All input characters that are
URL encoded (%XX where XX is a two-digit hexadecimal number) are converted to
their binary versions.
If the \fBlength\fP argument is set to 0 (zero), curl_easy_unescape() will use
strlen() on the input \fIurl\fP string to find out the size.
If \fBoutlength\fP is non-NULL, the function will write the length of the
returned string in the integer it points to. This allows an escaped string
containing %00 to still get used properly after unescaping.
You must \fIcurl_free(3)\fP the returned string when you're done with it.
.SH AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.15.4 and replaces the old curl_unescape() function.
.SH RETURN VALUE
A pointer to a zero terminated string or NULL if it failed.
.SH "SEE ALSO"
.I curl_easy_escape(3), curl_free(3), RFC 2396
