.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
For FTP and SFTP based URLs a parameter set to 1 tells the library to list the
|
|
|
|
names of files in a directory, rather than performing a full directory listing
|
|
|
|
that would normally include file sizes, dates etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For POP3 a parameter of 1 tells the library to list the email message or
|
|
|
|
messages on the POP3 server. This can be used to change the default behavior
|
|
|
|
of libcurl, when combined with a URL that contains a message ID, to perform a
|
|
|
|
\&"scan listing" which can then be used to determine the size of an email.
|

|
|
|
For FILE, this option has no effect yet as directories are always listed in
|
|
|
|
this mode.

|
|
|
Note: For FTP this causes a NLST command to be sent to the FTP server. Beware
|
|
|
|
that some FTP servers list only files in their response to NLST; they might
|
|
|
|
not include subdirectories and symbolic links.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setting this option to 1 also implies a directory listing even if the URL
|
|
|
|
does not end with a slash, which otherwise is necessary.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Do not use this option if you also use \fICURLOPT_WILDCARDMATCH(3)\fP as it
|
|
|
|
effectively breaks that feature.
