The curl_easy_setopt call will return CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION or CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN if the option is not supported. That's the most reliable way of telling. It's unusual that a program would need to know if an option is supported without actually trying to use that option. >>> Dan ------------------------------------------------------------------- List admin: http://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html
