5.11 How do I make libcurl not receive the whole HTTP response?
5.12 Can I make libcurl fake or hide my real IP address?
5.13 How do I stop an ongoing transfer?
+ 5.14 Using C++ non-static functions for callbacks?
6. License Issues
6.1 I have a GPL program, can I use the libcurl library?
If you're using the multi interface, you also stop a transfer by removing
the particular easy handle from the multi stack.
+ 5.14 Using C++ non-static functions for callbacks?
+
+ libcurl is a C library, it doesn't know anything about C++ member functions.
+
+ You can overcome this "limitation" with a relative ease using a static
+ member function that is passed a pointer to the class:
+
+ // f is the pointer to your object.
+ static YourClass::staticFunction(void *buffer, size_t sz, size_t n, void *f)
+ {
+ // Call non-static member function.
+ static_cast<YourClass*>(f)->nonStaticFunction();
+ }
+
+ // This is how you pass pointer to the static function:
+ curl_easy_setopt(hcurl, CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION, YourClass:staticFunction);
+ curl_easy_setopt(hcurl, CURLOPT_WRITEDATA, this);
+
