plucky (3) CURLOPT_HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING.3.gz

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  default  content  decoding  but  requires  you  to  use
       CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING(3) for that.

DEFAULT

       1

PROTOCOLS
