NAME¶

curl_multi_cleanup - close down a multi session

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLMcode curl_multi_cleanup( CURLM *multi_handle );

DESCRIPTION¶

Cleans up and removes a whole multi stack. It does not free or touch any individual easy handles in any way - they still need to be closed individually, using the usual curl_easy_cleanup(3) way. The order of cleaning up should be:

1 - curl_multi_remove_handle(3) before any easy handles are cleaned up

2 - curl_easy_cleanup(3) can now be called independently since the easy handle is no longer connected to the multi handle

3 - curl_multi_cleanup(3) should be called when all easy handles are removed

Passing in a NULL pointer in multi_handle will make this function return CURLM_BAD_HANDLE immediately with no other action.

RETURN VALUE¶

CURLMcode type, general libcurl multi interface error code. On success, CURLM_OK is returned.
