CURLOPT_PATH_AS_IS(3)	   curl_easy_setopt options	 CURLOPT_PATH_AS_IS(3)

NAME
       CURLOPT_PATH_AS_IS - do not handle dot dot sequences

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode	  curl_easy_setopt(CURL	  *handle,   CURLOPT_PATH_AS_IS,  long
       leaveit);

DESCRIPTION
       By setting the long leaveit to 1, to explicitly	tell  libcurl  to  not
       alter the given path before passing it on to the server.

       This  tells libcurl to NOT squash sequences of "/../" or "/./" that may
       exist in the URL's path part and that is supposed to be removed accord‐
       ing to RFC 3986 section 5.2.4.

       Some  server implementations are known to (erroneously) require the dot
       dot sequences to remain in the path and some clients want to pass these
       on in order to try out server implementations.

       By default libcurl will merge such sequences before using the path.

DEFAULT
       0

PROTOCOLS
       All

EXAMPLE
       CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();

	 curl_easy_perform(curl);
       }
