NAMECURLOPT_TRANSFER_ENCODING - ask for HTTP Transfer Encoding SYNOPSIS#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_TRANSFER_ENCODING, DESCRIPTIONPass a long set to 1L to enable 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 is automatically uncompressed by libcurl on reception. Transfer-Encoding differs slightly from the Content-Encoding you ask for with CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING(3) 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. DEFAULT0 PROTOCOLSThis functionality affects http only EXAMPLEint main(void) { AVAILABILITYAdded in curl 7.21.6 RETURN VALUEcurl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error. CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see libcurl-errors(3). SEE ALSOCURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING(3), CURLOPT_HTTP_TRANSFER_DECODING(3)
