# NAME
CURLOPT_ALTSVC_CTRL - control alt-svc behavior
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
#define CURLALTSVC_READONLYFILE (1<<2)
#define CURLALTSVC_H1 (1<<3)
#define CURLALTSVC_H2 (1<<4)
#define CURLALTSVC_H3 (1<<5)
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_ALTSVC_CTRL, long bitmask);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
Populate the long *bitmask* with the correct set of features to instruct
libcurl how to handle Alt-Svc for the transfers using this handle.
libcurl only accepts Alt-Svc headers over a secure transport, meaning
HTTPS. It also only completes a request to an alternative origin if that
origin is properly hosted over HTTPS. These requirements are there to make
sure both the source and the destination are legitimate.
Alternative services are only used when setting up new connections. If there
exists an existing connection to the host in the connection pool, then that is
preferred.
Setting any bit enables the alt-svc engine.
## CURLALTSVC_READONLYFILE
Do not write the alt-svc cache back to the file specified with
CURLOPT_ALTSVC(3) even if it gets updated. By default a file specified
with that option is read and written to as deemed necessary.
## CURLALTSVC_H1
Accept alternative services offered over HTTP/1.1.
## CURLALTSVC_H2
Accept alternative services offered over HTTP/2. This is only used if libcurl
was also built to actually support HTTP/2, otherwise this bit is ignored.
## CURLALTSVC_H3
Accept alternative services offered over HTTP/3. This is only used if libcurl
was also built to actually support HTTP/3, otherwise this bit is ignored.
# DEFAULT
Alt-Svc handling is disabled by default. If CURLOPT_ALTSVC(3) is set,
CURLOPT_ALTSVC_CTRL(3) has a default value corresponding to
CURLALTSVC_H1 | CURLALTSVC_H2 | CURLALTSVC_H3 - the HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 bits are
only set if libcurl was built with support for those versions.
# PROTOCOLS
HTTPS
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_ALTSVC_CTRL, (long)CURLALTSVC_H1);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_ALTSVC, "altsvc-cache.txt");
curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
}
