-.TH curl_global_init_mem 3 "10 May 2004" "libcurl" "libcurl"
-.SH NAME
-curl_global_init_mem - Global libcurl initialization with memory callbacks
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-#include <curl/curl.h>
-
-CURLcode curl_global_init_mem(long flags,
- curl_malloc_callback m,
- curl_free_callback f,
- curl_realloc_callback r,
- curl_strdup_callback s,
- curl_calloc_callback c);
-.fi
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-This function works exactly as \fIcurl_global_init(3)\fP with one addition: it
-allows the application to set callbacks to replace the otherwise used internal
-memory functions.
-
-If you are using libcurl from multiple threads or libcurl was built with the
-threaded resolver option then the callback functions must be thread safe. The
-threaded resolver is a common build option to enable (and in some cases the
-default) so we strongly urge you to make your callback functions thread safe.
-
-All callback arguments must be set to valid function pointers. The
-prototypes for the given callbacks must match these:
-.IP "void *malloc_callback(size_t size);"
-To replace malloc()
-.IP "void free_callback(void *ptr);"
-To replace free()
-.IP "void *realloc_callback(void *ptr, size_t size);"
-To replace realloc()
-.IP "char *strdup_callback(const char *str);"
-To replace strdup()
-.IP "void *calloc_callback(size_t nmemb, size_t size);"
-To replace calloc()
-.PP
-This function is otherwise the same as \fIcurl_global_init(3)\fP, please refer
-to that man page for documentation.
-.SH CAUTION
-Manipulating these gives considerable powers to the application to severely
-screw things up for libcurl. Take care!
-.SH EXAMPLE
-.nf
- curl_global_init_mem(CURL_GLOBAL_DEFAULT, curl_malloc_cb,
- curl_free_cb, curl_realloc_cb,
- curl_strdup_cb, curl_calloc_cb);
-.fi
-.SH AVAILABILITY
-Added in 7.12.0
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred as
-\fI<curl/curl.h>\fP defines - see \fIlibcurl-errors(3)\fP.
-.SH "SEE ALSO"
-.BR curl_global_init (3),
-.BR curl_global_cleanup (3)
