Download large files with R and RCurl

First, read documentation. Try with

#getCurlOptionTypes(opts = getCurlOptionsConstants())
#print (getCurlOptionTypes)
#listCurlOptions()
#getCurlOptionsConstants()
#getCurlOptionTypes(opts = getCurlOptionsConstants())

Then, this is the code ( pretty self explanatory)

downloadFile <-function(url, file){
      curl = getCurlHandle()
curlSetOpt( .opts = list(http.version =HTTP_VERSION_1_0, verbose = TRUE),
                curl = curl)
    
     f = CFILE(file, mode=”wb”)
     a = curlPerform(url = url,curl=curl, writedata = f@ref, noprogress=FALSE)
     close(f)

}
