.TH CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS 3 "2025-07-07" libcurl
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS \- maximum number of redirects allowed
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.nf
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS, long amount);
|
|
.fi
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
Pass a long. The set number is the redirection limit \fIamount\fP. If that
|
|
many redirections have been followed, the next redirect triggers the error
|
|
(\fICURLE_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS\fP). This option only makes sense if the
|
|
\fICURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION(3)\fP is used at the same time.
|
|
|
|
Setting the limit to 0 makes libcurl refuse any redirect.
|
|
|
|
Set it to \-1 for an infinite number of redirects. This allows your application
|
|
to get stuck in never\-ending redirect loops.
|
|
.SH DEFAULT
|
|
30 (since 8.3.0), it was previously unlimited.
|
|
.SH PROTOCOLS
|
|
This functionality affects http only
