! 24:
! 25: .SH NAME
! 26: CURLOPT_HTTPGET \- ask for an HTTP GET request
! 27: .SH SYNOPSIS
! 28: #include <curl/curl.h>
! 29:
! 30: CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HTTPGET, long useget);
! 31: .SH DESCRIPTION
! 32: Pass a long. If \fIuseget\fP is 1, this forces the HTTP request to get back to
! 33: using GET. Usable if a POST, HEAD, PUT, etc has been used previously using the
! 34: same curl \fIhandle\fP.
! 35:
! 36: When setting \fICURLOPT_HTTPGET(3)\fP to 1, it will automatically set
! 37: \fICURLOPT_NOBODY(3)\fP to 0 and \fICURLOPT_UPLOAD(3)\fP to 0.
! 38:
! 39: Setting this option to zero has no effect. Applications need to explicitly
! 40: select which HTTP request method to use, they cannot deselect a method. To
! 41: reset a handle to default method, consider \fIcurl_easy_reset(3)\fP.
! 42: .SH DEFAULT
! 43: 0
! 44: .SH PROTOCOLS
! 45: HTTP(S)
! 46: .SH EXAMPLE

! 54:
! 55: /* Perform the request */
! 56: curl_easy_perform(curl);

! 58: .fi
