curl_share_init(3)

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 on  some
       places  in  the documentation. This init call MUST have a corresponding
       call to curl_share_cleanup when all operations using the share are com-
       plete.

       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.
