.SH NAME
|
|
|
|
|
CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE_LARGE \- maximum file size allowed to download

.SH SYNOPSIS

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
Pass a curl_off_t as parameter. This specifies the maximum accepted \fIsize\fP
|
|
|
|
|
(in bytes) of a file to download. If the file requested is found larger than
|
|
|
|
|
this value, the transfer is aborted and \fICURLE_FILESIZE_EXCEEDED\fP is
|
2024-06-01 20:49:19 +00:00
|
|
|
returned. Passing a zero \fIsize\fP disables this, and passing a negative \fIsize\fP
|
|
|
|
|
yields a \fICURLE_BAD_FUNCTION_ARGUMENT\fP.
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
|
.SH DEFAULT
|
2024-06-01 20:49:19 +00:00
|
|
|
0, meaning disabled.
