string in the given error buffer to address the flaw mention on 21 sep 2005.

If the library does not return an error, the buffer may not have been touched. Do not rely on the contents in those cases. -In a few rare cases, there is no text string associated with the error in -libcurl and then you may not get a string in the buffer even though it returns -an error. This is considered a bug and we appreciate your reports about these -cases. Anyway, you can avoid problems with these cases in your program by -making sure to clear the first byte of the error buffer before you call -curl_easy_perform(). .IP CURLOPT_STDERR Pass a FILE * as parameter. Tell libcurl to use this stream instead of stderr when showing the progress meter and displaying \fICURLOPT_VERBOSE\fP data. |
