.SH NAME

CURLOPT_INFILESIZE_LARGE \- size of the input file to send off

#include <curl/curl.h>

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
When uploading a file to a remote site, \fIfilesize\fP should be used to tell
|
|
|
|
libcurl what the expected size of the input file is. This value must be passed
|
|
|
|
as a \fBcurl_off_t\fP.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For uploading using SCP, this option or \fICURLOPT_INFILESIZE(3)\fP is
|
|
|
|
mandatory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To unset this value again, set it to \-1.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When sending emails using SMTP, this command can be used to specify the
|
|
|
|
optional SIZE parameter for the MAIL FROM command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This option does not limit how much data libcurl actually sends, as that is
|
|
|
|
controlled entirely by what the read callback returns, but telling one value
|
|
|
|
and sending a different amount may lead to errors.
