.TH CURLOPT_TRANSFER_ENCODING 3 "November 04, 2020" "libcurl 7.75.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"
|
|
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
CURLOPT_TRANSFER_ENCODING \- ask for HTTP Transfer Encoding
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_TRANSFER_ENCODING, long enable);
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
Pass a long set to 1L to \fIenable\fP or 0 to disable.
|
|
|
|
Adds a request for compressed Transfer Encoding in the outgoing HTTP
|
|
request. If the server supports this and so desires, it can respond with the
|
|
HTTP response sent using a compressed Transfer-Encoding that will be
|
|
automatically uncompressed by libcurl on reception.
|
|
|
|
Transfer-Encoding differs slightly from the Content-Encoding you ask for with
|
|
\fICURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING(3)\fP in that a Transfer-Encoding is strictly meant
|
|
to be for the transfer and thus MUST be decoded before the data arrives in the
|
|
client. Traditionally, Transfer-Encoding has been much less used and supported
|
|
by both HTTP clients and HTTP servers.
