CURLOPT_HTTP_TRANSFER_DECODING(3) Library Functions Manual
NAME
CURLOPT_HTTP_TRANSFER_DECODING - HTTP transfer decoding control
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HTTP_TRANSFER_DECODING,
long enabled);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a long to tell libcurl how to act on transfer decoding. If set to
zero, transfer decoding is disabled, if set to 1 it is enabled
(default). libcurl does chunked transfer decoding by default unless
this option is set to zero.
NOTES
This option does not work with the hyper backend as that always has
transfer decoding enabled.
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_TRANSFER_DECODING, 0L);
ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
}
AVAILABILITY
Added in curl 7.16.2

Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION
