NAME¶
CURLOPT_BUFFERSIZE - set preferred receive buffer size
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_BUFFERSIZE, long size);
DESCRIPTION¶
Pass a long specifying your preferred
size (in bytes) for the receive
buffer in libcurl. The main point of this would be that the write callback
gets called more often and with smaller chunks. This is just treated as a
request, not an order. You cannot be guaranteed to actually get the given
size.
This size is by default set as big as possible (
CURL_MAX_WRITE_SIZE), so
it only makes sense to use this option if you want it smaller.
DEFAULT¶
CURL_MAX_WRITE_SIZE
PROTOCOLS¶
All
EXAMPLE¶

AVAILABILITY¶

RETURN VALUE¶
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
