.SH NAME
curl_easy_duphandle - Clone a libcurl session handle
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B #include <curl/curl.h>
.BI "CURL *curl_easy_duphandle(CURL *"handle ");"
.SH DESCRIPTION
This function will return a new curl handle, a duplicate, using all the
options previously set in the input curl \fIhandle\fP. Both handles can
subsequently be used independently and they must both be freed with
\fIcurl_easy_cleanup(3)\fP.
All strings that the input handle has been told to point to (as opposed to
copy) with previous calls to \fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP using char * inputs,
will be pointed to by the new handle as well. You must therefore make sure to
keep the data around until both handles have been cleaned up.
The new handle will \fBnot\fP inherit any state information, no connections,
no SSL sessions and no cookies. It also will not inherit any share object
states or options (it will be made as if \fICURLOPT_SHARE(3)\fP was set to
NULL).
In multi-threaded programs, this function must be called in a synchronous way,
the input handle may not be in use when cloned.
.SH RETURN VALUE
If this function returns NULL, something went wrong and no valid handle was
returned.
