.IP CURLINFO_OS_ERRNO
Pass a pointer to a long to receive the errno variable from a connect failure.
(Added in 7.12.2)
+.IP CURLINFO_NUM_CONNECTS
+Pass a pointer to a long to receive how many new connections libcurl had to
+create to achieve the previous transfer (only the successful connects are
+counted). Combined with \fICURLINFO_REDIRECT_COUNT\fP you are able to know
+how many times libcurl successfully reused existing connection(s) or not. See
+the Connection Options of \fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP to see how libcurl tries
+to make persistent connections to save time. (Added in 7.12.3)
.SH RETURN VALUE

appropriate error code will be returned.
