CURLOPT_RANGE(3)					     curl_easy_setopt options						  CURLOPT_RANGE(3)

NAME
       CURLOPT_RANGE - set byte range to request

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_RANGE, char *range);

DESCRIPTION
       Pass a char * as parameter, which should contain the specified range you want to retrieve. It should be in the format "X-Y", where either X
       or Y may be left out and X and Y are byte indexes.

       HTTP transfers also support several intervals, separated with commas as in "X-Y,N-M". Using this kind of multiple intervals will cause  the
       HTTP server to send the response document in pieces (using standard MIME separation techniques). Unfortunately, the HTTP standard (RFC 7233
       section 3.1) allows servers to ignore range requests so even when you set CURLOPT_RANGE(3) for a request, you may end up getting  the  full
       response sent back.

       For RTSP, the formatting of a range should follow RFC2326 Section 12.29. For RTSP, byte ranges are not permitted. Instead, ranges should be
       given in npt, utc, or smpte formats.

       Pass a NULL to this option to disable the use of ranges.

       The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.

DEFAULT
       NULL

PROTOCOLS
       HTTP, FTP, FILE, RTSP and SFTP.

EXAMPLE
       CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://example.com");

	 /* get the first 200 bytes */
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_RANGE, "0-199");

	 /* Perform the request */
	 curl_easy_perform(curl);
       }

AVAILABILITY
       FILE since 7.18.0, RTSP since 7.20.0

RETURN VALUE
       Returns CURLE_OK on success or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
