I did not use C for about 15 years. I did never program in C at work. Recently I felt I want to satisfy my low level programming needs. I started with preparing my vim environment, wrote Makefile and simple usage of the libcurl library.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <curl/curl.h>
size_t on_write(char *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb, void *userdata) {
return nmemb;
}
int on_progress(void *clientp, curl_off_t dltotal, curl_off_t dlnow, curl_off_t ultotal, curl_off_t ulnow) {
printf("total %zu, now %zu\n", dltotal, dlnow);
return 0;
}
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
CURL *easy_handle = curl_easy_init();
curl_easy_setopt(easy_handle, CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS, 0);
curl_easy_setopt(easy_handle, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
curl_easy_setopt(easy_handle, CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION, on_write);
curl_easy_setopt(easy_handle, CURLOPT_XFERINFOFUNCTION, on_progress);
curl_easy_perform(easy_handle);
curl_easy_cleanup(easy_handle);
return 0;
}
