CURLOPT_HT...NT_DECODING(3) Library Functions Manual CURLOPT_HT...NT_DECODING(3)

NAME
     CURLOPT_HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING - HTTP content decoding control

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curl/curl.h>

     CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING,
			       long enabled);

DESCRIPTION
     Pass a long to tell libcurl how to act on content decoding. If set to zero,
     content decoding is disabled. If set to 1 it is enabled. libcurl has no de-
     fault  content  decoding but requires you to use CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING(3)
     for that.

DEFAULT
     1

PROTOCOLS
     This functionality affects http only

EXAMPLE
     int main(void)
     {
       CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
	 CURLcode result;
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING, 0L);
	 result = curl_easy_perform(curl);
       }
     }

AVAILABILITY
     Added in curl 7.16.2

RETURN VALUE
     curl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.

     CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see
     libcurl-errors(3).

SEE ALSO
     CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING(3), CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION(3), CURLOPT_STDERR(3)
