CURLOPT_HEADEROPT(3) curl_easy_setopt options CURLOPT_HEADEROPT(3)
NAME
CURLOPT_HEADEROPT - set how to send HTTP headers
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HEADEROPT, long bitmask);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a long that is a bitmask of options of how to deal with headers. The two mutually exclusive options are:
CURLHEADER_UNIFIED - the headers specified in CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER(3) will be used in requests both to servers and proxies. With this option
enabled, CURLOPT_PROXYHEADER(3) will not have any effect.
CURLHEADER_SEPARATE - makes CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER(3) headers only get sent to a server and not to a proxy. Proxy headers must be set with CUR-
LOPT_PROXYHEADER(3) to get used. Note that if a non-CONNECT request is sent to a proxy, libcurl will send both server headers and proxy
headers. When doing CONNECT, libcurl will send CURLOPT_PROXYHEADER(3) headers only to the proxy and then CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER(3) headers only
to the server.
DEFAULT
CURLHEADER_SEPARATE (changed in 7.42.1, ased CURLHEADER_UNIFIED before then)
