CURLMINFO_XFERS_PENDING(3) Library Functions Manual CURLMINFO_XFERS_PENDING(3)

NAME

CURLMINFO_XFERS_PENDING - Number of easy handles waiting to start

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLMcode curl_multi_get_offt(CURLM *handle, CURLMINFO_XFERS_PENDING,

curl_off_t *pvalue);

DESCRIPTION

The number of current easy handles waiting to start. An added transfer might become pending for various reasons: a connection limit forces it to wait, resolving DNS is not finished or it is not clear if an existing, matching connection may allow multiplexing (HTTP/2 or HTTP/3).

DEFAULT

n/a

EXAMPLE

int main(void)
{

CURLM *m = curl_multi_init();

AVAILABILITY

Added in curl 8.16.0

RETURN VALUE

curl_multi_get_offt(3) returns a CURLMcode indicating success or error.
