-.TH curl_global_init 3 "13 Nov 2001" "libcurl 7.9.1" "libcurl Manual"
-.SH NAME
-curl_global_init - Global libcurl initialisation
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B #include <curl/curl.h>
-.sp
-.BI "CURLcode curl_global_init(long " flags ");"
-.ad
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-This function should only be called once (no matter how many threads or
-libcurl sessions that'll be used) by every application that uses libcurl.
-
-If this function hasn't been invoked when \fIcurl_easy_init\fP is called, it
-will be done automatically by libcurl.
-
-The flags option is a bit pattern that tells libcurl exact what features to
-init, as described below. Set the desired bits by ORing the values together.
-
-You must however \fBalways\fP use the \fIcurl_global_cleanup\fP function, as
-that cannot be called automatically for you by libcurl.
-
-Calling this function more than once will cause unpredictable results.
-
-This function was added in libcurl 7.8.
-.SH FLAGS
-.TP 5
-.B CURL_GLOBAL_ALL
-Initialize everything possible. This sets all known bits.
-.TP
-.B CURL_GLOBAL_SSL
-Initialize SSL
-.TP
-.B CURL_GLOBAL_WIN32
-Initialize the Win32 socket libraries. (added in libcurl 7.8.1)
-.TP
-.B CURL_GLOBAL_NOTHING
-Initialise nothing extra. This sets no bit.
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-If this function returns non-zero, something went wrong and you cannot use the
-other curl functions.
-.SH "SEE ALSO"
-.BR curl_global_cleanup "(3), "
-.SH BUGS
-None.
