Perl

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. Chilkat2 Perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use Chilkat2;

my $spider = Chilkat2::Spider->new;

$spider->Initialize('www.chilkatsoft.com');

# Add the 1st URL:
$spider->AddUnspidered('http://www.chilkatsoft.com/');

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