If the server supports this and so desires, it can respond with the HTTP response sent using a compressed Transfer-Encoding that will be automatically uncompressed by libcurl on reception. 54<p class="level0">Transfer-Encoding differs slightly from the Content-Encoding you ask for with <a Class="bold" href="/CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING.html">CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING</a> in that a Transfer-Encoding is strictly meant to be for the transfer and thus MUST be decoded before the data arrives in the client. Traditionally, Transfer-Encoding has been much less used and supported by both HTTP clients and HTTP servers. <a name="DEFAULT"></a><h2 class="nroffsh">DEFAULT</h2> 55<p class="level0">0 <a name="PROTOCOLS"></a><h2 class="nroffsh">PROTOCOLS</h2> 56<p class="level0">HTTP <a name="EXAMPLE"></a><h2 class="nroffsh">EXAMPLE</h2> 57<p class="level0">TODO <a name="AVAILABILITY"></a><h2 class="nroffsh">AVAILABILITY</h2> 58<p class="level0">Added in 7.21.6 <a name="RETURN"></a><h2 class="nroffsh">RETURN VALUE</h2> 59<p class="level0">Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not. <a name="SEE"></a><h2 class="nroffsh">SEE ALSO</h2> 60<p class="level0"><a Class="manpage" href="/CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING.html">CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING</a> <a Class="manpage" href="/CURLOPT_HTTP_TRANSFER_DECODING.html">CURLOPT_HTTP_TRANSFER_DECODING</a> <span Class="manpage"> </span> <p class="roffit"> 61 This HTML page was made with <a href="http://daniel.haxx.se/projects/roffit/">roffit</a>. 62</body></html> 63
