# NAME
|
|
|
|
CURLOPT_XFERINFOFUNCTION - progress meter callback
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
int progress_callback(void *clientp,
|
|
curl_off_t dltotal,
|
|
curl_off_t dlnow,
|
|
curl_off_t ultotal,
|
|
curl_off_t ulnow);
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_XFERINFOFUNCTION,
|
|
progress_callback);
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Pass a pointer to your callback function, which should match the prototype
|
|
shown above.
|
|
|
|
This function gets called by libcurl instead of its internal equivalent with a
|
|
frequent interval. While data is being transferred it gets called frequently,
|
|
and during slow periods like when nothing is being transferred it can slow
|
|
down to about one call per second.
|
|
|
|
*clientp* is the pointer set with CURLOPT_XFERINFODATA(3), it is not
|
|
used by libcurl but is only passed along from the application to the callback.
|
|
|
|
The callback gets told how much data libcurl is about to transfer and has
|
|
already transferred, in number of bytes. *dltotal* is the total number of
|
|
bytes libcurl expects to download in this transfer. *dlnow* is the number
|
|
of bytes downloaded so far. *ultotal* is the total number of bytes libcurl
|
|
expects to upload in this transfer. *ulnow* is the number of bytes
|
|
uploaded so far.
|
|
|
|
Unknown/unused argument values passed to the callback are set to zero (like if
|
|
you only download data, the upload size remains 0). Many times the callback is
|
|
called one or more times first, before it knows the data sizes so a program
|
|
must be made to handle that.
|
|
|
|
If your callback function returns CURL_PROGRESSFUNC_CONTINUE it makes libcurl
|
|
to continue executing the default progress function.
|
|
|
|
Returning any other non-zero value from this callback makes libcurl abort the
|
|
transfer and return *CURLE_ABORTED_BY_CALLBACK*.
|
|
|
|
If you transfer data with the multi interface, this function is not called
|
|
during periods of idleness unless you call the appropriate libcurl function
|
|
that performs transfers.
|
|
|
|
CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS(3) must be set to 0 to make this function actually
|
|
get called.
|
|
|
|
# DEFAULT
|
|
|
|
By default, libcurl has an internal progress meter. That is rarely wanted by
|
|
users.
