Expand a little. - mention the type name of the return code - avoid stating which exact return codes that might be returned, as that varies over time, builds and conditions - avoid stating some always return OK - refer to the manpage documenting all the return codes Closes #15900

# NAME
|
|
|
|
CURLOPT_PATH_AS_IS - do not handle dot-dot sequences
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PATH_AS_IS, long leaveit);
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Set the long *leaveit* to 1, to explicitly tell libcurl to not alter the
|
|
given path before passing it on to the server.
|
|
|
|
This instructs libcurl to NOT squash sequences of "/../" or "/./" that may
|
|
exist in the URL's path part and that is supposed to be removed according to
|
|
RFC 3986 section 5.2.4.
|
|
|
|
Some server implementations are known to (erroneously) require the dot-dot
|
|
sequences to remain in the path and some clients want to pass these on in
|
|
order to try out server implementations.
|
|
|
|
By default libcurl normalizes such sequences before using the path.
|
|
|
|
This is a request for the *first* request libcurl issues. When following
|
|
redirects, it may no longer apply.
|
|
|
|
The corresponding flag for the curl_url_set(3) function is called
|
|
**CURLU_PATH_AS_IS**.
