# NAME
CURLOPT_HTTP_TRANSFER_DECODING - HTTP transfer decoding control
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#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.
# DEFAULT
1
# PROTOCOLS
HTTP
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
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 7.16.2 Does not work with the hyper backend (it always has transfer
decoding enabled).
# RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
