-.TH CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE 3 "19 Jun 2014" libcurl libcurl
-.SH NAME
-CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE \- maximum file size allowed to download
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-#include <curl/curl.h>
-
-CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE, long size);
-.fi
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-Pass a long as parameter. This specifies the maximum accepted \fIsize\fP (in
-bytes) of a file to download. If the file requested is found larger than this
-value, the transfer is aborted and \fICURLE_FILESIZE_EXCEEDED\fP is returned.
-
-The file size is not always known prior to the download start, and for such
-transfers this option has no effect - even if the file transfer eventually
-ends up being larger than this given limit.
-
-If you want a limit above 2GB, use \fICURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE_LARGE(3)\fP.
-
-Since 8.4.0, this option also stops ongoing transfers if they reach this
-threshold.
-.SH DEFAULT
-None
-.SH PROTOCOLS
-FTP, HTTP and MQTT
-.SH EXAMPLE
-.nf
-CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
-if(curl) {
- CURLcode ret;
- curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
- /* refuse to download if larger than 1000 bytes! */
- curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE, 1000L);
- ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
