NAME

CURLINFO_SIZE_DELIVERED - number of delivered bytes  

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_SIZE_DELIVERED,
                           curl_off_t *dlp);

 

DESCRIPTION

Pass a pointer to a curl_off_t to receive the total amount of bytes that were passed on to the write callback in the download. The amount is only for the latest transfer and gets reset again for each new transfer. This counts actual payload data, whataqs also commonly called body. All meta and header data is excluded from this amount (unless CURLOPT_HEADER(3) is set).

The delivered size may differ from the size retrieved with CURLINFO_SIZE_DOWNLOAD_T(3) when CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING(3) is used for automatic data decompression, as this is then the size of the uncompressed body while CURLINFO_SIZE_DOWNLOAD_T(3) returns the size of the download.  

PROTOCOLS

This functionality affects all supported protocols  

EXAMPLE

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode result;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");

    /* Perform the request */
    result = curl_easy_perform(curl);

    if(result == CURLE_OK) {
      /* check the size */
      curl_off_t dl;
      result = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_SIZE_DELIVERED, &dl);
      if(result == CURLE_OK) {
        printf("Stored %" CURL_FORMAT_CURL_OFF_T " bytesn", dl);
      }
    }
  }
}

 

AVAILABILITY

RETURN VALUE

curl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.
