NAME
CURLOPT_INTERLEAVEFUNCTION - callback function for RTSP interleaved data SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> size_t interleave_callback(void *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb, void *userdata); CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_INTERLEAVEFUNCTION, interleave_callback); DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to your callback function, which should match the prototype shown above. This callback function gets called by libcurl as soon as it has received interleaved RTP data. This function gets called for each $ block and therefore contains exactly one upper-layer protocol unit (e.g. one RTP packet). Curl writes the interleaved header as well as the included data for each call. The first byte is always an ASCII dollar sign. The dollar sign is followed by a one byte channel identifier and then a 2 byte integer length in network byte order. See RFC2326 Section 10.12 for more information on how RTP interleaving behaves. If unset or set to NULL, curl will use the default write function. Interleaved RTP poses some challenges for the client application. Since the stream data is sharing the RTSP control connection, it is crit- ical to service the RTP in a timely fashion. If the RTP data is not handled quickly, subsequent response processing may become unreasonably delayed and the connection may close. The application may use CURL_RTSPREQ_RECEIVE to service RTP data when no requests are desired. If the application makes a request, (e.g. CURL_RTSPREQ_PAUSE) then the response handler will process any pending RTP data before marking the request as finished. DEFAULT

NAME
CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION - set callback for writing received data SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> size_t write_callback(char *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb, void *userdata); CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION, write_callback); DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to your callback function, which should match the prototype shown above. This callback function gets called by libcurl as soon as there is data received that needs to be saved. ptr points to the delivered data, and the size of that data is size multiplied with nmemb. The callback function will be passed as much data as possible in all invokes, but you must not make any assumptions. It may be one byte, it may be thousands. The maximum amount of body data that will be passed to the write callback is defined in the curl.h header file: CURL_MAX_WRITE_SIZE (the usual default is 16K). If CURLOPT_HEADER(3) is enabled, which makes header data get passed to the write callback, you can get up to CURL_MAX_HTTP_HEADER bytes of header data passed into it. This usually means 100K. This function may be called with zero bytes data if the transferred file is empty. The data passed to this function will not be zero terminated! Set the userdata argument with the CURLOPT_WRITEDATA(3) option. Your callback should return the number of bytes actually taken care of. If that amount differs from the amount passed to your callback function, it'll signal an error condition to the library. This will cause the transfer to get aborted and the libcurl function used will return CURLE_WRITE_ERROR. If your callback function returns CURL_WRITEFUNC_PAUSE it will cause this transfer to become paused. See curl_easy_pause(3) for further details. Set this option to NULL to get the internal default function used instead of your callback. The internal default function will write the data to the FILE * given with CURLOPT_WRITEDATA(3). DEFAULT
libcurl will use 'fwrite' as a callback by default. PROTOCOLS
For all protocols AVAILABILITY
Support for the CURL_WRITEFUNC_PAUSE return code was added in version 7.18.0. RETURN VALUE
This will return CURLE_OK. EXAMPLE
A common technique is to use this callback to store the incoming data into a dynamically growing allocated buffer. Like in the getinmemory example: https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/getinmemory.html SEE ALSO
