curl_multi_init - create a multi handle
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLM *curl_multi_init();
This function returns a pointer to a CURLM handle to be used as input to all the other multi-functions, sometimes referred to as a multi handle in some places in the documentation. This init call MUST have a corresponding call to curl_multi_cleanup(3) when the operation is complete.
int main(void) { /* init a multi stack */ CURLM *multi = curl_multi_init(); CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); CURL *curl2 = curl_easy_init(); /* add individual transfers */ curl_multi_add_handle(multi, curl); curl_multi_add_handle(multi, curl2); }
Added in 7.9.6
If this function returns NULL, something went wrong and you cannot use the other curl functions.
