CURLOPT_CHUNK_END_FUNCTION explained

Name

CURLOPT_CHUNK_END_FUNCTION - callback after a transfer with FTP wildcard match

Synopsis

#include <curl/curl.h>
 
long chunk_end_callback(void *ptr);
 
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_CHUNK_END_FUNCTION,
                          chunk_end_callback);

Return CURL_CHUNK_END_FUNC_OK if everything is fine or CURL_CHUNK_END_FUNC_FAIL to tell the lib to stop if some error occurred.

Default

NULL

Protocols

Example

#include <stdio.h>
 
struct callback_data {
   FILE *output;
};
 
static long file_is_downloaded(struct callback_data *data)
{
  if(data->output) {
    fclose(data->output);
    data->output = 0x0;
  }
  return CURL_CHUNK_END_FUNC_OK;
}
 
int main()
{
  /* data for callback */
  struct callback_data callback_info;
 
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
 
  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_CHUNK_END_FUNCTION, file_is_downloaded);
  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_CHUNK_DATA, &callback_info);
