CURLOPT_STREAM_DEPENDS(3) Library Functions Manual CURLOPT_STREAM_DEPENDS(3)
NAME
CURLOPT_STREAM_DEPENDS - stream this transfer depends on
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_STREAM_DEPENDS,
CURL *dephandle);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a CURL pointer in dephandle to identify the stream within the same
connection that this stream is depending upon. This option clears the
exclusive bit and is mutually exclusive to the
CURLOPT_STREAM_DEPENDS_E(3) option.
The spec says "Including a dependency expresses a preference to
allocate resources to the identified stream rather than to the
dependent stream."
This option can be set during transfer.
dephandle must not be the same as handle, that makes this function
return an error. It must be another easy handle, and it also needs to
be a handle of a transfer that is about to be sent over the same HTTP/2
connection for this option to have an actual effect.
DEFAULT
NULL
PROTOCOLS
This functionality affects http only
EXAMPLE
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
CURL *curl2 = curl_easy_init(); /* a second handle */
if(curl) {
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/one");
/* the second depends on the first */
curl_easy_setopt(curl2, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/two");
curl_easy_setopt(curl2, CURLOPT_STREAM_DEPENDS, curl);
/* then add both to a multi handle and transfer them */
}
}
AVAILABILITY
Added in curl 7.46.0
RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION
if not.
