CURLMOPT_MAX_PIPELINE_LENGTH(3) libcurl CURLMOPT_MAX_PIPELINE_LENGTH(3)
NAME
CURLMOPT_MAX_PIPELINE_LENGTH - maximum number of requests in a pipeline
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLMcode curl_multi_setopt(CURLM *handle, CURLMOPT_MAX_PIPELINE_LENGTH,
long max);
DESCRIPTION
No function since pipelining was removed in 7.62.0.
Pass a long. The set max number will be used as the maximum amount of
outstanding requests in an HTTP/1.1 pipeline. This option is only used
for HTTP/1.1 pipelining, not for HTTP/2 multiplexing.
When this limit is reached, libcurl will use another connection to the
same host (see CURLMOPT_MAX_HOST_CONNECTIONS(3)), or queue the request
until one of the pipelines to the host is ready to accept a request.
Thus, the total number of requests in-flight is
CURLMOPT_MAX_HOST_CONNECTIONS(3) * CURLMOPT_MAX_PIPELINE_LENGTH(3).
DEFAULT
5
PROTOCOLS
HTTP(S)
EXAMPLE
CURLM *m = curl_multi_init();
/* set a more conservative pipe length */
curl_multi_setopt(m, CURLMOPT_MAX_PIPELINE_LENGTH, 3L);
AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.30.0
RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLM_OK if the option is supported, and CURLM_UNKNOWN_OPTION
if not.
