.SH NAME
CURLOPT_HTTPGET \- ask for an HTTP GET request
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HTTPGET, long useget);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a long. If \fIuseget\fP is 1, this forces the HTTP request to get back to
using GET. Usable if a POST, HEAD, PUT, etc has been used previously using the
same curl \fIhandle\fP.
When setting \fICURLOPT_HTTPGET(3)\fP to 1, libcurl automatically sets
\fICURLOPT_NOBODY(3)\fP to 0 and \fICURLOPT_UPLOAD(3)\fP to 0.
Setting this option to zero has no effect. Applications need to explicitly
select which HTTP request method to use, they cannot deselect a method. To
reset a handle to default method, consider \fIcurl_easy_reset(3)\fP.
.SH DEFAULT
0
.SH PROTOCOLS
This functionality affects http only
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
/* use a GET to fetch this */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_HTTPGET, 1L);
/* Perform the request */
curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
}
.fi
.SH AVAILABILITY
Added in curl 7.8.1
.SH RETURN VALUE
\fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.
CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non\-zero means an error occurred, see
\fIlibcurl\-errors(3)\fP.
