CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS - switch off the progress meter

Added in curl 7.1

1, meaning it normally runs without a progress meter.

If onoff is to 1, it tells the library to shut off the progress meter completely for requests done with this handle. It also prevents the CURLOPT_XFERINFOFUNCTION(3) or CURLOPT_PROGRESSFUNCTION(3) from getting called.

int main(void) { CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); if(curl) { curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com"); /* enable progress meter */ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS, 0L); /* Perform the request */ curl_easy_perform(curl); } }

CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS - switch off the progress meter

This functionality affects all supported protocols

curl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error. CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see libcurl-errors(3).
