# NAME
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS - create missing directories for FTP and SFTP
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
~~~c
|
||
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
typedef enum {
|
||
|
|
CURLFTP_CREATE_DIR_NONE,
|
||
|
|
CURLFTP_CREATE_DIR,
|
||
|
|
CURLFTP_CREATE_DIR_RETRY
|
||
|
|
} curl_ftpcreatedir;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS,
|
||
|
|
long create);

# DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Pass a long telling libcurl to *create* the dir. If the value is
|
||
|
|
*CURLFTP_CREATE_DIR* (1), libcurl may create any remote directory that it
|
||
|
|
fails to "move" into.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For FTP requests, that means a CWD command fails. CWD being the command that
|
||
|
|
changes working directory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For SFTP requests, libcurl may create the remote directory if it cannot obtain
|
||
|
|
a handle to the target-location. The creation fails if a file of the same name
|
||
|
|
as the directory to create already exists or lack of permissions prevents
|
||
|
|
creation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Setting *create* to *CURLFTP_CREATE_DIR_RETRY* (2), tells libcurl to
|
||
|
|
retry the CWD command again if the subsequent **MKD** command fails. This is
|
||
|
|
especially useful if you are doing many simultaneous connections against the
|
||
|
|
same server and they all have this option enabled, as then CWD may first fail
|
||
|
|
but then another connection does **MKD** before this connection and thus
|
||
|
|
**MKD** fails but trying CWD works!
