SYNOPSIS
Instantiate a new Curl_Type object
USAGE
Curl_Type curl_new(String_Type url)
DESCRIPTION
This function instantiates and returns a Curl_Type and
returns it. It is a wrapper around the cURL (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/) library function
`curl_easy_init'. The Curl_Type object is created with
the CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS option set to 1, and
CURLOPT_VERBOSE set to 0.
Upon failure, the function throws a `CurlError' exception.

curl_setopt
SYNOPSIS
Set an option for a specified Curl_Type object
USAGE
curl_setopt (Curl_Type c, Int_Type opt, ...)
DESCRIPTION
The `curl_setopt' function is a wrapper around the cURL (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/)
library function curl_easy_setopt (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_easy_setopt.html). For more information
about the options that this function takes, see
curl_easy_setopt (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_easy_setopt.html). Only the differences between the
module function and the corresponding API function will be explained
here.
The current version of the `curl' module does not support the
CURLOPT_*DATA options. Instead, support for these options
has been integrated into the corresponding callback functions. For
example, the CURLOPT_WRITEDATA option has been merged with
the CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION. Moreover the prototypes for the
callbacks have been changed to simplify their use, as described below.
<descrip>
CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION This option requires two parameters: a
reference to the callback function, and a user-defined object to
pass to that function. The callback function will be passed two
arguments: the specified user-defined object, and a binary string to
write. Upon failure, the function must return -1, and any other
value will indicate success.
CURLOPT_READFUNCTION This option requires two parameters: a
reference to the callback function, and a user-defined object to
pass to that function. The callback function will be passed two
arguments: the specified user-defined object, and the maximum number
of bytes to be read by the function. Upon success, the function
should return a (binary) string, otherwise it should return NULL to
indicate failure.
CURLOPT_WRITEHEADER This option requires two parameters: a
reference to the callback function, and a user-defined object to
pass to that function. The callback function will be passed two
arguments: the specified user-defined object, and a header string
write. The function must return -1 upon failure, or any other
integer to indicate success.
CURLOPT_PROGRESSFUNCTION This option requires two parameters: a
reference to the callback function, and a user-defined object to
pass to that function. The callback function will be passed five
arguments: the specified user-defined object, and four double
precision floating point values that represent the total number of
bytes to be downloaded, the total downloaded so far, the total to be
uploaded, and the total currently uploaded. This function must
return 0 to indicate success, or non-zero to indicate failure.
</descrip>
A number of the options in the cURL (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/) API take a linked list of
strings. Instead of a linked list, the module requires an array of
strings for such options, e.g.,
curl_setopt (c, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,
["User-Agent: S-Lang curl module",
"Content-Type: text/xml; charset=UTF-8",
"Content-Length: 1234"]);
EXAMPLE
The following example illustrates how to write the contents of a
specified URL to a file, its download progress to stdout, and
the contents of its header to variable:
define write_callback (fp, str)
{
return fputs (str, fp);
}
define progress_callback (fp, dltotal, dlnow, ultotal, ulnow)
{
if (-1 == fprintf (fp, "Bytes Received: %d\n", int(dlnow)))
return -1;
if (dltotal > 0.0)
{
if (-1 == fprintf (fp, "Percent Received: %g\n",
dlnow/dltotal * 100.0))
return -1;
}
return 0;
}
define header_callback (strp, str)
{
@strp += str;
return 0;
}
define download_url (url, file)
{
variable fp = fopen (file, "w");
variable c = curl_new (url);
curl_setopt (c, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION);
curl_setopt (c, CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION, &write_callback, fp);
curl_setopt (c, CURLOPT_PROGRESSFUNCTION, &progress_callback, stdout);
variable var = "";
curl_setopt (c, CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION, &header_callback, &var);
curl_perform (c);
() = fprintf (stdout, "Header: %s\n", var);
}

curl_get_info
SYNOPSIS
Get information about a Curl_Type object
USAGE
info = curl_get_info (Curl_Type c, Int_Type type)
DESCRIPTION
This function returns information of the requested type from a
Curl_Type object. The data returned depends upon the value
of the `type' argument. For more information, see see the
documentation for the cURL (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/) library curl_easy_getinfo (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_easy_getinfo.html) function.
EXAMPLE
This example shows how to use the `curl_get_info' function to
obtain the effective URL used for the transfer.
url = curl_get_info (c, CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL);
SEE ALSO
curl_new, curl_multi_info_read
--------------------------------------------------------------
curl_close
SYNOPSIS
Close a Curl_Type object
USAGE
curl_close
DESCRIPTION
This function is a wrapper around the curl_easy_cleanup (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_easy_cleanup.html)
cURL (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/) library function. See its
documentation (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_easy_perform.html) for more information.
NOTES
Normally there is no need to call this function because the module
automatically frees any memory associated with the Curl_Type
object when it is no longer referenced.

USAGE
Curl_Multi_Type curl_multi_new ()
DESCRIPTION
This function is a wrapper around the curl_multi_init (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_multi_init.html)
cURL (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/) library function. It creates a new instance of a

curl_multi_perform
SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
This function is a wrapper around the curl_multi_perform (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_multi_perform.html)
cURL (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/) library function. However, the `curl' module function
takes an additional argument (`dt') that causes the function to
wait up to that many seconds for one of the underlying
Curl_Type objects to become ready for reading or writing.
The function returns the number of Curl_Type.

curl_multi_info_read
SYNOPSIS
Get information about a Curl_Multi_Type transfer
USAGE
Curl_Type curl_multi_info_read (Curl_Multi_Type m [,Ref_Type info])
DESCRIPTION
This function retrieves information from the specified
Curl_Multi_Type object about an individual completed
transfer by one of its associated Curl_Type objects. If all
of the associated Curl_Type objects are still being
processed, the function will return NULL. Otherwise it returns the
completed Curl_Type object. If an optional Ref_Type
parameter is passed to the function, then upon return the
the associated variable be set to an integer representing the
completion status of the Curl_Type object. If the
completion status is 0, then the transfer was successful, otherwise
the individual transfer failed and the completion status gives the
error code associated with the transfer. More infomation about the
transfer may be obtained by calling the `curl_get_info' function.
EXAMPLE
The `curl_multi_info_read' function should be called after a
call to `curl_multi_perform' has indicated that a transfer has
taken place. The following example repeatedly calls
`curl_multi_info_read' until it returns NULL. Each time
through the loop, the completed Curl_Type object is removed
from the Curl_Multi_Type object.
while (c = curl_multi_info_read (m, &status), c!=NULL)
{
curl_multi_remove_handle (m, c);
url = curl_get_url (c);
if (status == 0)
vmessage ("Retrieved %s", url);
else
vmessage ("Unable to retrieve %s: Reason %s",
url, curl_strerr (status));
}
