focal (3) curl_share_init.3.gz

NAME

       curl_share_init - Create a shared object

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLSH *curl_share_init( );

DESCRIPTION

       This  function  returns  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 when all operations using the share are complete.

       This share handle is what you pass to curl using the CURLOPT_SHARE(3) option with curl_easy_setopt(3), to
       make that specific curl handle use the data in this share.

RETURN VALUE

       If this function returns NULL, something went wrong (out of memory, etc.)  and therefore the share object
       was not created.
