.SH NAME
CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS \- maximum number of redirects allowed
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS, long amount);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a long. The set number is the redirection limit \fIamount\fP. If that
many redirections have been followed, the next redirect triggers the error
(\fICURLE_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS\fP). This option only makes sense if the
\fICURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION(3)\fP is used at the same time.
Setting the limit to 0 makes libcurl refuse any redirect.
Set it to \-1 for an infinite number of redirects. This allows your application
to get stuck in never\-ending redirect loops.
.SH DEFAULT
30 (since 8.3.0), it was previously unlimited.
.SH PROTOCOLS
This functionality affects http only
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
/* enable redirect following */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1L);
/* allow three redirects */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS, 3L);
/* Perform the request */
curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
}
.fi
.SH AVAILABILITY
Added in curl 7.5
.SH RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if HTTP is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
