- generate AVAILABILITY manpage sections automatically - for consistent wording - allows us to double-check against other documumentation (symbols-in-versions etc) - enables proper automation/scripting based on this data - lots of them were wrong or missing in the manpages - several of them repeated (sometimes mismatching) backend support info Add test 1488 to verify "added-in" version numbers against symbols-in-versions.

NAME
CURLOPT_PATH_AS_IS - do not handle dot dot sequences
SYNOPSIS
#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.
The corresponding flag for the curl_url_set(3) function is called CURLU_PATH_AS_IS.
DEFAULT
0
EXAMPLE
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL,
"https://example.com/../../etc/password");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PATH_AS_IS, 1L);
curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
}
RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
