27 #include <curl/curl.h>
29 CURLMcode curl_multi_setopt(CURLM *handle, CURLMOPT_MAX_TOTAL_CONNECTIONS, long amount);
31 Pass a long for the \fBamount\fP. The set number will be used as the maximum
32 number of simultaneously open connections in total using this multi
33 handle. For each new session, libcurl will open a new connection up to the
34 limit set by \fICURLMOPT_MAX_TOTAL_CONNECTIONS(3)\fP. When the limit is
35 reached, the sessions will be pending until there are available
36 connections. If \fICURLMOPT_PIPELINING(3)\fP is enabled, libcurl will try to
37 pipeline if the host is capable of it.
39 The default value is 0, which means that there is no limit. It is then simply
40 controlled by the number of easy handles added.
48 Returns CURLM_OK if the option is supported, and CURLM_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
