From 966fa848a0213be52d3a4b3787c36ec7c5553f22 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Stenberg Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2005 22:05:38 +0000 Subject: Nis Jorgensen filed bug report #1338648 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1338648) which really is more of a feature request, but anyway. It pointed out that --max-redirs did not allow it to be set to 0, which then would return an error code on the first Location: found. Based on Nis' patch, now libcurl supports CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS set to 0, or -1 for infinity. Added test case 274 to verify. --- docs/libcurl/curl_easy_setopt.3 | 6 ++++-- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'docs/libcurl') diff --git a/docs/libcurl/curl_easy_setopt.3 b/docs/libcurl/curl_easy_setopt.3 index 99e57e684..3e49643e9 100644 --- a/docs/libcurl/curl_easy_setopt.3 +++ b/docs/libcurl/curl_easy_setopt.3 @@ -21,7 +21,7 @@ .\" * $Id$ .\" ************************************************************************** .\" -.TH curl_easy_setopt 3 "22 Sep 2005" "libcurl 7.14.2" "libcurl Manual" +.TH curl_easy_setopt 3 "27 Oct 2005" "libcurl 7.14.2" "libcurl Manual" .SH NAME curl_easy_setopt - set options for a curl easy handle .SH SYNOPSIS @@ -516,7 +516,9 @@ option is meaningful only when setting \fICURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION\fP.
