.TH curl_global_init 3 "29 May 2001" "libcurl 7.8" "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 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 should be set to zero. It will be used to tell libcurl what
specific features it should \fBnot\fP init.
You must however \fBalways\fP use the \fIcurl_global_cleanup\fP function, as
that cannot be called automatically for you by libcurl.
This function was added in libcurl 7.8.
.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.
