CURLOPT_HTTPGET(3)					     curl_easy_setopt options						CURLOPT_HTTPGET(3)

NAME

       CURLOPT_HTTPGET - ask for a HTTP GET request

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HTTPGET, long useget);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a	long. If useget is 1, this forces the HTTP request to get back to using GET. Usable if a POST, HEAD, PUT, etc has been used previ-
       ously using the same curl handle.

       When setting CURLOPT_HTTPGET(3) to 1, it will automatically set CURLOPT_NOBODY(3) to 0 and CURLOPT_UPLOAD(3) to 0.

DEFAULT

       0

PROTOCOLS

       HTTP(S)

EXAMPLE

       curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://example.com");

	 /* use a GET to fetch this */
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_HTTPGET, 1L);

	 /* Perform the request */
	 curl_easy_perform(curl);
       }

AVAILABILITY

       Along with HTTP

RETURN VALUE

       Returns CURLE_OK if HTTP is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.

CURLOPT_NOBODY(3)					     curl_easy_setopt options						 CURLOPT_NOBODY(3)

NAME

       CURLOPT_NOBODY - do the download request without getting the body

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_NOBODY, long opt);

DESCRIPTION

       A  long	parameter  set	to  1  tells libcurl to not include the body-part in the output when doing what would otherwise be a download. For
       HTTP(S), this makes libcurl do a HEAD request. For most other protocols it means just not asking to transfer the body data.

       Enabling this option means asking for a download but without a body.

DEFAULT

       0, the body is transferred

PROTOCOLS

       Most

EXAMPLE

       curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://example.com");

	 /* get us the resource without a body! */
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_NOBODY, 1L);

	 /* Perform the request */
	 curl_easy_perform(curl);
       }

AVAILABILITY

       Always

RETURN VALUE
