9 #include <curl/curl.h>
10 CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLoption option, parameter);
12
14 curl_easy_setopt(3) is used to tell libcurl how to behave. By setting
15 the appropriate options, the application can change libcurl's behavior.
16 All options are set with an option followed by a parameter. That param‐
17 eter can be a long, a function pointer, an object pointer or a
18 curl_off_t, depending on what the specific option expects. Read this
19 manual carefully as bad input values may cause libcurl to behave badly!
20 You can only set one option in each function call. A typical applica‐
21 tion uses many curl_easy_setopt(3) calls in the setup phase.
22 Options set with this function call are valid for all forthcoming
24 transfers performed using this handle. The options are not in any way
25 reset between transfers, so if you want subsequent transfers with dif‐
26 ferent options, you must change them between the transfers. You can
27 optionally reset all options back to internal default with
28 curl_easy_reset(3).
29 Strings passed to libcurl as 'char *' arguments, are copied by the
31 library; thus the string storage associated to the pointer argument may
32 be overwritten after curl_easy_setopt(3) returns. The only exception to
33 this rule is really CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS(3), but the alternative that
34 copies the string CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS(3) has some usage characteris‐
35 tics you need to read up on.
36 The order in which the options are set does not matter.
38 Before version 7.17.0, strings were not copied. Instead the user was
40 forced keep them available until libcurl no longer needed them.
41 The handle is the return code from a curl_easy_init(3) or
43 curl_easy_duphandle(3) call.

960 Strings passed on to libcurl must be shorter than 8000000 bytes, other‐
962 wise curl_easy_setopt(3) returns CURLE_BAD_FUNCTION_ARGUMENT (added in
963 7.65.0).
964 If you try to set an option that libcurl doesn't know about, perhaps
966 because the library is too old to support it or the option was removed
967 in a recent version, this function will return CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION. If
968 support for the option was disabled at compile-time, it will return
969 CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN.
