For +deep hierarchies this means many commands. This is how RFC1738 says it should +be done. This is the default but the slowest behavior. +.IP CURLFTPMETHOD_NOCWD +libcurl does no CWD at all. libcurl will do SIZE, RETR, STOR etc and give a +full path to the server for all these commands. This is the fastest behavior. +.IP CURLFTPMETHOD_SINGLECWD +libcurl does one CWD with the full target directory and then operates on the +file \&"normally" (like in the multicwd case). This is somewhat more standards +compliant than 'nocwd' but without the full penalty of 'multicwd'. +.SH DEFAULT +CURLFTPMETHOD_MULTICWD +.SH PROTOCOLS +FTP +.SH EXAMPLE +TODO +.SH AVAILABILITY +Added in 7.15.1 +.SH RETURN VALUE +Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR CURLOPT_FTPLISTONLY "(3), " CURLOPT_FTP_SKIP_PASV_IP "(3), " |
