curl_formfree(3) libcurl Manual curl_formfree(3)NAME
curl_formfree - free a previously build multipart/formdata HTTP POST chain
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
void curl_formfree(struct curl_httppost *form);
DESCRIPTION
curl_formfree() is used to clean up data previously built/appended with curl_formadd(3). This must be called when the data has been used,
which typically means after curl_easy_perform(3) has been called.
The pointer to free is the same pointer you passed to the CURLOPT_HTTPPOST option, which is the firstitem pointer from the curl_formadd(3)
invoke(s).
form is the pointer as returned from a previous call to curl_formadd(3) and may be NULL.
RETURN VALUE
None

CURLOPT_HTTPPOST(3) curl_easy_setopt options CURLOPT_HTTPPOST(3)NAME
CURLOPT_HTTPPOST - specify the multipart formpost content
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HTTPPOST,
struct curl_httppost *formpost);
DESCRIPTION
Tells libcurl you want a multipart/formdata HTTP POST to be made and you instruct what data to pass on to the server in the formpost argu-
ment. Pass a pointer to a linked list of curl_httppost structs as parameter. The easiest way to create such a list, is to use curl_for-
madd(3) as documented. The data in this list must remain intact as long as the curl transfer is alive and is using it.
Using POST with HTTP 1.1 implies the use of a "Expect: 100-continue" header. You can disable this header with CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER(3).
When setting CURLOPT_HTTPPOST(3), it will automatically set CURLOPT_NOBODY(3) to 0.
DEFAULT
NULL
PROTOCOLS
HTTP
EXAMPLE
/* Fill in the file upload field. This makes libcurl load data from
the given file name when curl_easy_perform() is called. */
curl_formadd(&formpost,
&lastptr,
CURLFORM_COPYNAME, "sendfile",
CURLFORM_FILE, "postit2.c",
CURLFORM_END);
/* Fill in the filename field */
curl_formadd(&formpost,
&lastptr,
CURLFORM_COPYNAME, "filename",
CURLFORM_COPYCONTENTS, "postit2.c",
CURLFORM_END);
/* Fill in the submit field too, even if this is rarely needed */
curl_formadd(&formpost,
&lastptr,
CURLFORM_COPYNAME, "submit",
CURLFORM_COPYCONTENTS, "send",
CURLFORM_END);
AVAILABILITY
As long as HTTP is enabled
RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if HTTP is enabled, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
