EXAMPLE

       static int sock_cb(CURL *e, curl_socket_t s, int what, void *cbp, void *sockp)
       {
         GlobalInfo *g = (GlobalInfo*) cbp;
         SockInfo *fdp = (SockInfo*) sockp;

         if(what == CURL_POLL_REMOVE) {
           remsock(fdp);
         }
         else {
           if(!fdp) {
             addsock(s, e, what, g);
           }
           else {
             setsock(fdp, s, e, what, g);
           }
         }
         return 0;
       }

       main()
       {
         GlobalInfo setup;
         /* ... use socket callback and custom pointer */
         curl_multi_setopt(multi, CURLMOPT_SOCKETFUNCTION, sock_cb);
         curl_multi_setopt(multi, CURLMOPT_SOCKETDATA, &setup);
