Setting a Maximum Response Size

See more Spider Examples

The MaxResponseSize property protects your spider from downloading a page that is too large. By default, MaxResponseSize = 0, which indicates that there is no maximum. You may set it to a number indicating the maximum number of bytes to download. URLs with response sizes larger than this will be skipped. C

#include <C_CkSpider.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    HCkSpider spider;

    spider = CkSpider_Create();

    CkSpider_Initialize(spider,"www.chilkatsoft.com");

    // Add the 1st URL:
    CkSpider_AddUnspidered(spider,"http://www.chilkatsoft.com/");

    // This example demonstrates setting the MaxResponseSize property
    // Do not download anything with a response size greater than 100,000 bytes.
    CkSpider_putMaxResponseSize(spider,100000);


    CkSpider_Dispose(spider);
