Repository size is about 250 Mb, so it was a considerable amount of Curl's work. -- Bryan Henderson introduces two things: - 1) the progress callback gets called more frequently (at times) - 2) libcurl *might* call the callback when it receives a signal: - - libcurl calls the progress callback at least once a second, and sometimes - when the process receives and catches a signal. Ideally, it would get - called every time the process receives and catches a signal, but in the - current implementation, libcurl may fail to recognize a signal during name - resolution, during the wait for a TCP connection, and during some tiny - windows other times. - - If you want a signal to interrupt your call to libcurl, install a signal - handler for it. Have that signal handler set a flag indicating that the - signal was received. Set up a libcurl progress callback that checks that - flag and, if it is set, returns a nonzero return code. - - Two common kinds of signals you might want to allow to interrupt libcurl - are: 1) SIGINT, the signal that typically results from a user typing - control-C; 2) SIGALRM, a signal indicating a timeout. (libcurl also has - specific timeout facilities, but SIGALRM can be from a master timeout - established at a higher layer of your program). - Dan F (9 March 2007) - Updated the test harness to add a new "crypto" feature check and updated the appropriate test case to use it.
