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  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.
