I want to return a variable of type httpsdata. Can I use httpsData as function return type ?

int GetHTTPSData( httpsdata& httpsData_o )
{
   httpsData_o = anotherHttpsData;
   return 0; // All went well
}

Pass httpsdata as a reference... this helps you return a execution status value too, which won't be possible

struct __dummy {
 int i;
 int j;
}Dummy;

bool LoadValues(struct Dummy& src)
{
 src.i = 1;
 src.j = 2;

 return true/false; /* Depends, assume here true */
}

void SumFns(..)
{
 struct Dummy MyDummyValue = {0};
 if (LoadValues(MyDummyValue))
 {
  /* Succeeded */
  /* Now if you access 'MyDummyValue', you can have the data */
  int a = MyDummyValue.i; /* a will be assigned as 1 */
  int b = MyDummyValue.j; /* b will be assigned as 2 */
 }
 else
  /* Failed */
