curl_share_init - Create a shared object
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLSH *curl_share_init();
This function returns a pointer to a
CURLSH handle to be used as input to
all the other share-functions, sometimes referred to as a share handle in some
places in the documentation. This init call MUST have a corresponding call to
curl_share_cleanup(3) when all operations using the share are complete.
This
share handle is what you pass to curl using the
CURLOPT_SHARE(3) option with
curl_easy_setopt(3), to make that
specific curl handle use the data in this share.
CURLSHcode sh;
share = curl_share_init();
sh = curl_share_setopt(share, CURLSHOPT_SHARE, CURL_LOCK_DATA_CONNECT);
if(sh)
printf("Error: %s\n", curl_share_strerror(sh));

If this function returns NULL, something went wrong (out of memory, etc.) and
therefore the share object was not created.
