# NAME
|
|
|
|
CURLOPT_TRANSFERTEXT - request a text based transfer for FTP
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_TRANSFERTEXT, long text);
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
A parameter set to 1 tells the library to use ASCII mode for FTP transfers,
|
|
instead of the default binary transfer. For win32 systems it does not set the
|
|
stdout to binary mode. This option can be usable when transferring text data
|
|
between systems with different views on certain characters, such as newlines
|
|
or similar.
|
|
|
|
libcurl does not do a complete ASCII conversion when doing ASCII transfers
|
|
over FTP. This is a known limitation/flaw that nobody has rectified. libcurl
|
|
simply sets the mode to ASCII and performs a standard transfer.
