<p class="level0">CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING, char *enc); <a name="DESCRIPTION"></a><h2 class="nroffsh">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p class="level0">Pass a char * argument specifying what encoding you'd like.
<p class="level0">Sets the contents of the Accept-Encoding: header sent in a HTTP request, and enables decoding of a response when a Content-Encoding: header is received. Three encodings are supported: <span Class="emphasis">identity</span>, which does nothing, <span Class="emphasis">deflate</span> which requests the server to compress its response using the zlib algorithm, and <span Class="emphasis">gzip</span> which requests the gzip algorithm.
<p class="level0">If a zero-length string is set like "", then an Accept-Encoding: header containing all built-in supported encodings is sent.
<p class="level0">You can also opt to just include the Accept-Encoding: header in your request with <a Class="emphasis" href="./CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER.html">CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER</a> but then there will be no automatic decompressing when receiving data.
<p class="level0">This is a request, not an order; the server may or may not do it. This option must be set (to any non-NULL value) or else any unsolicited encoding done by the server is ignored. See the special file lib/README.encoding for further details. <a name="DEFAULT"></a><h2 class="nroffsh">DEFAULT</h2>

<p class="level0">Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space. <a name="SEE"></a><h2 class="nroffsh">SEE ALSO</h2>
