.TH CURLOPT_HTTP200ALIASES 3 "November 04, 2020" "libcurl 7.78.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"

.SH NAME
CURLOPT_HTTP200ALIASES \- specify alternative matches for HTTP 200 OK
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HTTP200ALIASES,
                          struct curl_slist *aliases);
.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a linked list of \fIaliases\fP to be treated as valid HTTP
200 responses.  Some servers respond with a custom header response line.  For
example, SHOUTcast servers respond with "ICY 200 OK". Also some very old
Icecast 1.3.x servers will respond like that for certain user agent headers or
in absence of such. By including this string in your list of aliases,
the response will be treated as a valid HTTP header line such as
"HTTP/1.0 200 OK".

The linked list should be a fully valid list of struct curl_slist structs, and
be properly filled in.  Use \fIcurl_slist_append(3)\fP to create the list and
\fIcurl_slist_free_all(3)\fP to clean up an entire list.

The alias itself is not parsed for any version strings. The protocol is
assumed to match HTTP 1.0 when an alias match.
