CURLOPT_PREQUOTE(3) Library Functions Manual CURLOPT_PREQUOTE(3)
NAME
CURLOPT_PREQUOTE - commands to run before an FTP transfer
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PREQUOTE, struct curl_slist *cmds);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a linked list of FTP commands to pass to the server after the transfer type is set. The linked list should be a fully valid list of struct curl_slist structs properly filled in as described for CURLOPT_QUOTE(3). Disable this operation again by setting a NULL to this option. These commands are not performed when a directory listing is performed, only for file transfers. While CURLOPT_QUOTE(3) and CURLOPT_POSTQUOTE(3) work for SFTP, this option does not.
DEFAULT
NULL
PROTOCOLS
This functionality affects ftp only
EXAMPLE
int main(void) { struct curl_slist *cmdlist = NULL; cmdlist = curl_slist_append(cmdlist, "SYST"); CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); if(curl) { CURLcode res; curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp://example.com/foo.bin"); /* pass in the FTP commands to run */ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PREQUOTE, cmdlist); res = curl_easy_perform(curl); curl_easy_cleanup(curl); } }
AVAILABILITY
Added in curl 7.9.5
RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
