CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE_LARGE(3) libcurl CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE_LARGE(3)
NAME
CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE_LARGE - maximum file size allowed to download
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE_LARGE,
curl_off_t size);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a curl_off_t as parameter. This specifies the maximum accepted
size (in bytes) of a file to download. If the file requested is found
larger than this value, the transfer is aborted and CURLE_FILE-
SIZE_EXCEEDED is returned.
The file size is not always known prior to the download start, and for
such transfers this option has no effect - even if the file transfer
eventually ends up being larger than this given limit.
Since 8.4.0, this option also stops ongoing transfers if they reach
this threshold.
DEFAULT
None
PROTOCOLS
FTP, HTTP and MQTT
EXAMPLE
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode ret;
curl_off_t ridiculous = 1 << 48;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
/* refuse to download if larger than ridiculous */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE_LARGE, ridiculous);
ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.11.0
RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION
if not.
