CURLOPT_HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING(3)                      Library Functions Manual


NAME

       CURLOPT_HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING - HTTP content decoding control


SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING,
                                 long enabled);


DESCRIPTION

       Pass a long to tell libcurl how to act on content decoding. If set to
       zero, content decoding is disabled. If set to 1 it is enabled. libcurl
       has no default content decoding but requires you to use
       CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING(3) for that.


DEFAULT

       1


PROTOCOLS

       This functionality affects http only


EXAMPLE

       int main(void)
       {
         CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
         if(curl) {
           CURLcode ret;
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING, 0L);
           ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
         }
       }


AVAILABILITY

       Added in curl 7.16.2


RETURN VALUE

       curl_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).
