It is also called to rewind a stream when doing a HTTP PUT or POST with a multi-pass authentication method. The function shall work like "fseek" or "lseek" and accepted SEEK_SET, -SEEK_CUR and SEEK_END as argument for origin, although (in 7.18.0) libcurl -only passes SEEK_SET.

The callback must return 0 (CURL_SEEKFUNC_OK) on success, 1 +(CURL_SEEKFUNC_FAIL) to cause the upload operation to fail or 2 (CURL_SEEKFUNC_CANTSEEK) to indicate that while the seek failed, libcurl is free to work around the problem if possible. The latter can sometimes be done by instead reading from the input or similar. |
