So it seems that it would be quite valuable if the documentation were as
clear as the source comment is about the side-effects of setting POSTFIELDS.
And as there are a few other similar side-effects to setting other options,
it would be helpful to document those as well.
What comment are you referring to? What libcurl version are you using?
In current libcurl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS set (to anything) implies a POST. Thus
if you set POSTFIELDS to NULL _after_ setting HTTPGET to 1, it still will end
up in a POST.
I don't see anything in the docs that says setting POSTFIELDS to NULL is a
good idea if you don't want to send a POST.
So, can you please tell us exactly how you suggest we alter/change the docs to
make the behavior better described?
