27 This is an "external" header file. Don't give away any internals here!
31 o Enable a "pull" interface. The application that uses libcurl decides where
32 and when to ask libcurl to get/send data.
34 o Enable multiple simultaneous transfers in the same thread without making it
35 complicated for the application.
37 o Enable the application to select() on its own file descriptors and curl's
38 file descriptors simultaneous easily.
43 * This header file should not really need to include "curl.h" since curl.h
44 * itself includes this file and we expect user applications to do #include
45 * <curl/curl.h> without the need for especially including multi.h.
47 * For some reason we added this include here at one point, and rather than to
48 * break existing (wrongly written) libcurl applications, we leave it as-is
49 * but with this warning attached.

125 * Name: curl_multi_init()

131 CURL_EXTERN CURLM *curl_multi_init(void);
134 * Name: curl_multi_add_handle()
136 * Desc: add a standard curl handle to the multi stack
138 * Returns: CURLMcode type, general multi error code.
140 CURL_EXTERN CURLMcode curl_multi_add_handle(CURLM *multi_handle,

150 CURL_EXTERN CURLMcode curl_multi_remove_handle(CURLM *multi_handle,
154 * Name: curl_multi_fdset()
156 * Desc: Ask curl for its fd_set sets. The app can use these to select() or
157 * poll() on. We want curl_multi_perform() called as soon as one of
160 * Returns: CURLMcode type, general multi error code.
162 CURL_EXTERN CURLMcode curl_multi_fdset(CURLM *multi_handle,
164 fd_set *write_fd_set,
169 * Name: curl_multi_wait()
171 * Desc: Poll on all fds within a CURLM set as well as any
172 * additional fds passed to the function.
174 * Returns: CURLMcode type, general multi error code.
176 CURL_EXTERN CURLMcode curl_multi_wait(CURLM *multi_handle,

178 unsigned int extra_nfds,
183 * Name: curl_multi_poll()
185 * Desc: Poll on all fds within a CURLM set as well as any
186 * additional fds passed to the function.

203 CURL_EXTERN CURLMcode curl_multi_wakeup(CURLM *multi_handle);
206 * Name: curl_multi_perform()
208 * Desc: When the app thinks there's data available for curl it calls this
209 * function to read/write whatever there is right now. This returns
210 * as soon as the reads and writes are done. This function does not
211 * require that there actually is data available for reading or that
212 * data can be written, it can be called just in case. It returns
213 * the number of handles that still transfer data in the second
214 * argument's integer-pointer.
216 * Returns: CURLMcode type, general multi error code. *NOTE* that this only
217 * returns errors etc regarding the whole multi stack. There might
218 * still have occurred problems on individual transfers even when
221 CURL_EXTERN CURLMcode curl_multi_perform(CURLM *multi_handle,
222 int *running_handles);
225 * Name: curl_multi_cleanup()
227 * Desc: Cleans up and removes a whole multi stack. It does not free or
228 * touch any individual easy handles in any way. We need to define
229 * in what state those handles will be if this function is called
230 * in the middle of a transfer.
232 * Returns: CURLMcode type, general multi error code.
234 CURL_EXTERN CURLMcode curl_multi_cleanup(CURLM *multi_handle);
237 * Name: curl_multi_info_read()
239 * Desc: Ask the multi handle if there's any messages/informationals from
240 * the individual transfers. Messages include informationals such as
241 * error code from the transfer or just the fact that a transfer is
242 * completed. More details on these should be written down as well.
244 * Repeated calls to this function will return a new struct each
245 * time, until a special "end of msgs" struct is returned as a signal
246 * that there is no more to get at this point.
248 * The data the returned pointer points to will not survive calling
249 * curl_multi_cleanup().
251 * The 'CURLMsg' struct is meant to be very simple and only contain
252 * very basic information. If more involved information is wanted,
253 * we will provide the particular "transfer handle" in that struct
254 * and that should/could/would be used in subsequent
255 * curl_easy_getinfo() calls (or similar). The point being that we
256 * must never expose complex structs to applications, as then we'll
257 * undoubtably get backwards compatibility problems in the future.
259 * Returns: A pointer to a filled-in struct, or NULL if it failed or ran out
260 * of structs. It also writes the number of messages left in the
261 * queue (after this read) in the integer the second argument points
264 CURL_EXTERN CURLMsg *curl_multi_info_read(CURLM *multi_handle,
268 * Name: curl_multi_strerror()
270 * Desc: The curl_multi_strerror function may be used to turn a CURLMcode
271 * value into the equivalent human readable error string. This is
272 * useful for printing meaningful error messages.
274 * Returns: A pointer to a null-terminated error message.
276 CURL_EXTERN const char *curl_multi_strerror(CURLMcode);
279 * Name: curl_multi_socket() and
280 * curl_multi_socket_all()
282 * Desc: An alternative version of curl_multi_perform() that allows the
283 * application to pass in one of the file descriptors that have been
284 * detected to have "action" on them and let libcurl perform.
285 * See man page for details.
