curl_share_init(3) Library Functions Manual curl_share_init(3) NAME curl_share_init - create a share object SYNOPSIS #include <curl/curl.h> CURLSH *curl_share_init(); DESCRIPTION This function returns a pointer to a CURLSH handle to be used as input to all the other share-functions, sometimes referred to as a share handle in some places in the documentation. This init call MUST have a corresponding call to curl_share_cleanup(3) when all operations using the share are com- plete. This share handle is what you pass to curl using the CURLOPT_SHARE(3) op- tion with curl_easy_setopt(3), to make that specific curl handle use the data in this share. PROTOCOLS This functionality affects all supported protocols EXAMPLE int main(void) { CURLSHcode sh; CURLSH *share = curl_share_init(); sh = curl_share_setopt(share, CURLSHOPT_SHARE, CURL_LOCK_DATA_CONNECT); if(sh) printf("Error: %s\n", curl_share_strerror(sh)); } AVAILABILITY Added in curl 7.10 RETURN VALUE If this function returns NULL, something went wrong (out of memory, etc.) and therefore the share object was not created.
