# NAME
|
|
|
|
CURLOPT_UPLOAD - data upload
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_UPLOAD, long upload);
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The long parameter *upload* set to 1 tells the library to prepare for and
|
|
perform an upload. The CURLOPT_READDATA(3) and
|
|
CURLOPT_INFILESIZE(3) or CURLOPT_INFILESIZE_LARGE(3) options are
|
|
also interesting for uploads. If the protocol is HTTP, uploading means using
|
|
the PUT request unless you tell libcurl otherwise.
|
|
|
|
Using PUT with HTTP 1.1 implies the use of a "Expect: 100-continue" header.
|
|
You can disable this header with CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER(3) as usual.
|
|
|
|
If you use PUT to an HTTP 1.1 server, you can upload data without knowing the
|
|
size before starting the transfer. The library enables this by adding a header
|
|
"Transfer-Encoding: chunked". With HTTP 1.0 or if you prefer not to use chunked
|
|
transfer, you must specify the size of the data with
|
|
CURLOPT_INFILESIZE(3) or CURLOPT_INFILESIZE_LARGE(3).
