SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_WS_OPTIONS, long bitmask);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a long with a bitmask to tell libcurl about specific WebSocket behaviors.

To detach a WebSocket connection and use the curl_ws_send(3) and curl_ws_recv(3) functions after the HTTP upgrade procedure, set the CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY(3) option to 2L.

Available bits in the bitmask

CURLWS_RAW_MODE (1)

Deliver "raw" WebSocket traffic to the CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION(3) callback.

In raw mode, libcurl does not handle pings or any other frame for the application.
