NAME

6       CURLOPT_PROXY_TRANSFER_MODE - append FTP transfer mode to URL for proxy
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <curl/curl.h>
10
11       CURLcode  curl_easy_setopt(CURL  *handle,  CURLOPT_PROXY_TRANSFER_MODE,
12       long enabled);
13

DESCRIPTION

15       Pass a long. If the value is set to 1 (one), it tells  libcurl  to  set
16       the  transfer mode (binary or ASCII) for FTP transfers done via an HTTP
17       proxy, by appending ;type=a or ;type=i to the URL.  Without  this  set‐
18       ting, or it being set to 0 (zero, the default), CURLOPT_TRANSFERTEXT(3)
19       has no effect when doing FTP via a proxy. Beware that not  all  proxies
20       support this feature.

DEFAULT

23       0, disabled
