Because -\fIcurl_global_cleanup(3)\fP calls functions of other libraries that are -similarly thread unsafe, it could conflict with any other thread that uses -these other libraries. - -See the description in \fIlibcurl(3)\fP of global environment requirements for -details of how to use this function. -.SH CAUTION -\fIcurl_global_cleanup(3)\fP does not block waiting for any libcurl-created -threads to terminate (such as threads used for name resolving). If a module -containing libcurl is dynamically unloaded while libcurl-created threads are -still running then your program may crash or other corruption may occur. We -recommend you do not run libcurl from any module that may be unloaded -dynamically. This behavior may be addressed in the future. -.SH EXAMPLE -.nf - curl_global_init(CURL_GLOBAL_DEFAULT); - - /* use libcurl, then before exiting... */ - - curl_global_cleanup(); -.fi -.SH AVAILABILITY -Added in 7.8 -.SH RETURN VALUE -None -.SH "SEE ALSO" -.BR curl_global_init (3), -.BR libcurl (3), -.BR libcurl-thread (3) |
