|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
|
|
|
CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS \- maximum number of redirects allowed
|
|
|
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS, long amount);
|
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
Pass a long. The set number will be the redirection limit \fIamount\fP. If
|
|
|
|
|
that many redirections have been followed, the next redirect will cause an
|
|
|
|
|
error (\fICURLE_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS\fP). This option only makes sense if the
|
|
|
|
|
\fICURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION(3)\fP is used at the same time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setting the limit to 0 will make libcurl refuse any redirect.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Set it to -1 for an infinite number of redirects.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
-1, unlimited
