They are not -part of the official libcurl API, but the source files might be useful for -others so apps can optionally compile/build with these sources to gain -additional functions. - -We provide them through a single header file for easy access for apps: -"curlx.h" - - curlx_strtoofft() - - A macro that converts a string containing a number to a curl_off_t number. - This might use the curlx_strtoll() function which is provided as source - code in strtoofft.c. Note that the function is only provided if no - strtoll() (or equivalent) function exist on your platform. If curl_off_t - is only a 32 bit number on your platform, this macro uses strtol(). - - curlx_tvnow() - - returns a struct timeval for the current time. - - curlx_tvdiff() - - returns the difference between two timeval structs, in number of - milliseconds. - - curlx_tvdiff_secs() - - returns the same as curlx_tvdiff but with full usec resolution (as a - double) - -FUTURE -====== - - Several functions will be removed from the public curl_ name space in a - future libcurl release. They will then only become available as curlx_ - functions instead. To make the transition easier, we already today provide - these functions with the curlx_ prefix to allow sources to get built properly - with the new function names. The functions this concerns are: - - curlx_getenv - curlx_strequal - curlx_strnequal - curlx_mvsnprintf - curlx_msnprintf - curlx_maprintf - curlx_mvaprintf - curlx_msprintf - curlx_mprintf - curlx_mfprintf - curlx_mvsprintf - curlx_mvprintf - curlx_mvfprintf |
