I am trying to POST huge files on a server. The server does not allow to do

I tried using curl_formadd() for doing this. But the problem with this is it
inserts MIME headers and boundaries even if a single file is POSted. Is
there any of avoiding these MIME headers.
The CURL_POSTFIELDS aceepts a buffer for bindary data. But this is ok for
small buffers. When it comes to writing huge files this not useful.
Is there any way to POST huge files ? I don't want to do PUT.
curl_formadd() creates a multipart formpost and juding by your comments above
that's not what you want (as that implies mime headers etc).
And yes, a normal POST can be any size you like. You can use
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS or even set CURLOPT_POST only and pass all data using the
read callback.
