.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
Alternative versions of \fIcurl_multi_perform(3)\fP that allows the
|
||||
application to pass in the file descriptor/socket that has been detected to
|
||||
have \&"action" on it and let libcurl perform. This allows libcurl to not have
|
||||
to scan through all possible file descriptors to check for action. When the
|
||||
application has detected action on a socket handled by libcurl, it should call
|
||||
\fIcurl_multi_socket_action(3)\fP with the \fBsockfd\fP argument set to the
|
||||
socket with the action. When the events on a socket are known, they can be
|
||||
passed as an events bitmask \fBev_bitmask\fP by first setting \fBev_bitmask\fP
|
||||
to 0, and then adding using bitwise OR (|) any combination of events to be
|
||||
chosen from CURL_CSELECT_IN, CURL_CSELECT_OUT or CURL_CSELECT_ERR. When the
|
||||
events on a socket are unknown, pass 0 instead, and libcurl will test the
|
||||
descriptor internally.
|
||||
have \&"action" on it and let libcurl perform. This lets libcurl avoid having
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
At return, the int \fBrunning_handles\fP points to will contain the number of
|
||||
still running easy handles within the multi handle. When this number reaches
|
||||
zero, all transfers are complete/done. Note that when you call

||||
When the application has detected action on a socket handled by libcurl, it
|

should call \fIcurl_multi_socket_action(3)\fP with the \fBsockfd\fP argument
|
||||
set to the socket with the action. When the events on a socket are known, they
|

can be passed as an events bitmask \fBev_bitmask\fP by first setting

|

|
||||
At return, the integer \fBrunning_handles\fP points to will contain the number
|
||||
of still running easy handles within the multi handle. When this number
|
||||
reaches zero, all transfers are complete/done. Note that when you call
|
||||
\fIcurl_multi_socket_action(3)\fP on a specific socket and the counter
|
||||
decreases by one, it DOES NOT necessarily mean that this exact socket/transfer
|
||||
is the one that completed. Use \fIcurl_multi_info_read(3)\fP to figure out
|
||||
which easy handle that completed.
|
||||
|
||||
The curl_multi_socket functions inform the application about updates in the
|
||||
socket (file descriptor) status by doing none, one or multiple calls to the
|
||||
socket callback function set with the CURLMOPT_SOCKETFUNCTION option to
|
||||
\fIcurl_multi_setopt(3)\fP. They update the status with changes since the
|
||||
previous time this function was called.
|
||||
The \fBcurl_multi_socket_action(3)\fP functions inform the application about
|
||||
updates in the socket (file descriptor) status by doing none, one or multiple
|
||||
calls to the socket callback function set with the CURLMOPT_SOCKETFUNCTION
|
||||
option to \fIcurl_multi_setopt(3)\fP. They update the status with changes
|
||||
since the previous time the callback was called.
|
||||
|
||||
Get the timeout time by setting the \fICURLMOPT_TIMERFUNCTION\fP option with
|
||||
\fIcurl_multi_setopt(3)\fP. Your application will then get called with
|
||||
information on how long to wait for socket actions at most before doing the
|
||||
timeout action: call the \fBcurl_multi_socket_action(3)\fP function with the
|
||||
\fBsockfd\fP argument set to CURL_SOCKET_TIMEOUT. You can also use the
|
||||
\fIcurl_multi_timeout(3)\fP function to poll the value at any given time, but
|
||||
for an event-based system using the callback is far better than relying on
|
||||
polling the timeout value.
|
||||
|
||||
Usage of \fIcurl_multi_socket(3)\fP is deprecated, whereas the function is
|
||||
equivalent to \fIcurl_multi_socket_action(3)\fP with \fBev_bitmask\fP set to
|
||||
0.
|
||||
|
||||
Force libcurl to (re-)check all its internal sockets and transfers instead of
|
||||
just a single one by calling \fBcurl_multi_socket_all(3)\fP. Note that there
|
||||
should rarely be reasons to use this function!
|
||||
|
||||
Get the timeout time - how long to wait for socket actions at most before
|
||||
doing the timeout action: call the \fBcurl_multi_socket(3)\fP function with
|
||||
the \fBsockfd\fP argument set to CURL_SOCKET_TIMEOUT, by setting the
|
||||
\fICURLMOPT_TIMERFUNCTION\fP option with \fIcurl_multi_setopt(3)\fP. You can
|
||||
also use the \fIcurl_multi_timeout(3)\fP function to poll the value at any
|
||||
given time, but for an event-based system using the callback is far better
|
||||
than relying on polling the timeout value.
|
||||
|
||||
Usage of \fIcurl_multi_socket(3)\fP is deprecated, whereas the function is
|
||||
equivalent to \fIcurl_multi_socket_action(3)\fP, when \fBev_bitmask\fP is set
|
||||
to 0.
|
||||
|
||||
should not exist any reasons to use this function!

If you receive \fICURLM_CALL_MULTI_PERFORM\fP, this basically means that you
|

should call \fIcurl_multi_socket(3)\fP again, before you wait for more actions
|

on libcurl's sockets. You don't have to do it immediately, but the return code

means that libcurl may have more data available to return or that there may be

function returns OK.
|

In modern libcurls, \fICURLM_CALL_MULTI_PERFORM\fP or

\fICURLM_CALL_MULTI_SOKCET\fP should not be returned and no application needs
|
||||
to care about them.

NOTE that the return code is for the whole multi stack. There might still have
