NAME

       CURLOPT_HEADER - pass headers to the data stream

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HEADER, long onoff);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  in  onoff  set  to 1 to tell the library to include the header in the body output for requests with
       this handle. This option is relevant for protocols that actually have headers or  other  meta-data  (like
       HTTP and FTP).

       When  asking  to  get  the  header  info  passed  to the same callback as the body, it is not possible to
       accurately separate them again without detailed knowledge about the protocol in use.

       It is often better to use CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION(3) to get the header data separately.

       While named confusingly similar, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER(3) is used to set custom HTTP headers!
