CURLOPT_CHUNK_END_FUNCTION3

Usage

#include <curl/curl.h>
long chunk_end_callback(void *ptr);
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_CHUNK_END_FUNCTION,
                          chunk_end_callback);

Overview

Pass a pointer to your callback function, which should match the prototype shown above.

This function gets called by libcurl as soon as a part of the stream has been transferred (or skipped).

Return CURL_CHUNK_END_FUNC_OK if everything is fine or CURL_CHUNK_END_FUNC_FAIL to tell the lib to stop if some error occurred.

Default

NULL

Protocols

This functionality affects ftp only

Examples

#include <stdio.h>
struct callback_data {
  FILE *output;
};
static long file_is_downloaded(void *ptr)
{
  struct callback_data *data = ptr;
  if(data->output) {
    fclose(data->output);
    data->output = 0x0;
  }
  return CURL_CHUNK_END_FUNC_OK;
}
int main(void)
{
  /* data for callback */
  struct callback_data callback_info;
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_CHUNK_END_FUNCTION, file_is_downloaded);
  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_CHUNK_DATA, &callback_info);
}

Return value

curl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.

CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see libcurl-errors(3).
