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.

EXAMPLE

         CURLSHcode sh
         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 7.10

RETURN VALUE

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