# NAME
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE - maximum file size allowed to download
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
~~~c
|
||
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE, long size);
|
||
|
|
~~~
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Pass a long as parameter. This specifies the maximum accepted *size* (in
|
||
|
|
bytes) of a file to download. If the file requested is found larger than this
|
||
|
|
value, the transfer is aborted and *CURLE_FILESIZE_EXCEEDED* is returned.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The file size is not always known prior to the download start, and for such
|
||
|
|
transfers this option has no effect - even if the file transfer eventually
|
||
|
|
ends up being larger than this given limit.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you want a limit above 2GB, use CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE_LARGE(3).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Since 8.4.0, this option also stops ongoing transfers if they reach this
|
||
|
|
threshold.
