NAME
CURLOPT_SSL_FALSESTART - TLS false start
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSL_FALSESTART, long enable);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a long as parameter set to 1L to enable or 0 to disable.
This option determines whether libcurl should use false start during the TLS handshake. False start is a
mode where a TLS client starts sending application data before verifying the server's Finished message,
thus saving a round trip when performing a full handshake.
DEFAULT
0
PROTOCOLS
This functionality affects all TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.
This option works only with the following TLS backends: Secure Transport
EXAMPLE
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();

curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSL_FALSESTART, 1L);
curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
}
