.TH curl_easy_cleanup 3 "22 Aug 2007" "libcurl 7.17.0" "libcurl Manual"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
curl_easy_cleanup - End a libcurl easy handle
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B #include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
.BI "void curl_easy_cleanup(CURL *" handle ");"
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
This function must be the last function to call for an easy session. It is the
|
|
opposite of the \fIcurl_easy_init(3)\fP function and must be called with the
|
|
same \fIhandle\fP as input that a \fIcurl_easy_init(3)\fP call returned.
|
|
|
|
This might close all connections this handle has used and possibly has kept
|
|
open until now - unless it was attached to a multi handle while doing the
|
|
transfers. Don't call this function if you intend to transfer more files,
|
|
re-using handles is a key to good performance with libcurl.
|
|
|
|
Occasionally you may get your progress callback or header callback called from
|
|
within \fIcurl_easy_cleanup(3)\fP (if previously set for the handle using
|
|
\fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP). Like if libcurl decides to shut down the
|
|
connection and the protocol is of a kind that requires a command/response
|
|
sequence before disconnect. Examples of such protocols are FTP, POP3 and IMAP.
|
|
|
|
Any use of the \fBhandle\fP after this function has been called and have
|
|
returned, is illegal. \fIcurl_easy_cleanup(3)\fP kills the handle and all
|
|
memory associated with it!
|
|
|
|
Passing in a NULL pointer in \fIhandle\fP will make this function return
|
|
immediately with no action.
|
|
.SH "OLD TIMES"
|
|
For libcurl versions before 7.17,: after you've called this function, you can
|
|
safely remove all the strings you've previously told libcurl to use, as it
|
|
won't use them anymore now.
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
None
|
|
.SH EXAMPLE
|
|
.nf
|
|
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
|
|
if(curl) {
|
|
CURLcode res;
|
|
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://example.com");
|
|
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
|
|
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
