CURLOPT_VERBOSE(3) Library Functions Manual CURLOPT_VERBOSE(3) NAME CURLOPT_VERBOSE - verbose mode SYNOPSIS #include CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, long onoff); DESCRIPTION Set the onoff parameter to 1 to make the library display a lot of verbose information about its operations on this handle. Useful for libcurl and/or protocol debugging and understanding. The verbose information is sent to stderr, or the stream set with CURLOPT_STDERR(3). You hardly ever want this enabled in production use, you almost always want this used when you debug/report problems. To also get all the protocol data sent and received, consider using the CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION(3). DEFAULT 0, meaning disabled.
