NAME
       CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_UPLOAD - get the specified size of the upload

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_UPLOAD,
                                  double *content_length);

DESCRIPTION

       a more sensible variable type.

         /* Perform the upload */
         res = curl_easy_perform(curl);

         if(!res) {
           /* check the size */
           double cl;
           res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_UPLOAD, &cl);
           if(!res) {
