.TH CURLOPT_HTTPPOST 3 "September 02, 2017" "libcurl 7.73.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"
|
|
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
CURLOPT_HTTPPOST \- specify the multipart formpost content
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.nf
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HTTPPOST,
|
|
struct curl_httppost *formpost);
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
Tells libcurl you want a multipart/formdata HTTP POST to be made and you
|
|
instruct what data to pass on to the server in the \fIformpost\fP argument.
|
|
Pass a pointer to a linked list of curl_httppost structs as parameter. The
|
|
easiest way to create such a list, is to use \fIcurl_formadd(3)\fP as
|
|
documented. The data in this list must remain intact as long as the curl
|
|
transfer is alive and is using it.
|
|
|
|
Using POST with HTTP 1.1 implies the use of a "Expect: 100-continue" header.
|
|
You can disable this header with \fICURLOPT_HTTPHEADER(3)\fP.
|
|
|
|
When setting \fICURLOPT_HTTPPOST(3)\fP, it will automatically set
|
|
\fICURLOPT_NOBODY(3)\fP to 0.
|
|
|
|
This option is deprecated! Do not use it. Use \fICURLOPT_MIMEPOST(3)\fP
|
|
instead after having prepared mime data.
