You can set 33CURLSHOPT_SHARE(3) multiple times with different data arguments to have 34the share object share multiple types of data. Unset a type again by setting 35CURLSHOPT_UNSHARE(3). 36 37## CURL_LOCK_DATA_COOKIE 38 39Cookie data is shared across the easy handles using this shared object. Note 40that this does not activate an easy handle's cookie handling. You can do that 41separately by using CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE(3) for example. 42 43## CURL_LOCK_DATA_DNS 44 45Cached DNS hosts are shared across the easy handles using this shared 46object. Note that when you use the multi interface, all easy handles added to 47the same multi handle share DNS cache by default without using this option. 48 49## CURL_LOCK_DATA_SSL_SESSION 50 51SSL session IDs are shared across the easy handles using this shared 52object. This reduces the time spent in the SSL handshake when reconnecting to 53the same server. Note SSL session IDs are reused within the same easy handle 54by default. Note this symbol was added in 7.10.3 but was not implemented until 557.23.0. 56 57## CURL_LOCK_DATA_CONNECT 58 59Put the connection cache in the share object and make all easy handles using 60this share object share the connection cache. 61 62It is not supported to share connections between multiple concurrent threads. 63 64Connections that are used for HTTP/2 or HTTP/3 multiplexing only get 65additional transfers added to them if the existing connection is held by the 66same multi or easy handle. libcurl does not support doing multiplexed streams 67in different threads using a shared connection. 68 69Support for **CURL_LOCK_DATA_CONNECT** was added in 7.57.0, but the symbol 70existed before this. 71 72Note that when you use the multi interface, all easy handles added to the same 73multi handle shares connection cache by default without using this option. 74 75## CURL_LOCK_DATA_PSL 76 77The Public Suffix List stored in the share object is made available to all 78easy handle bound to the later. Since the Public Suffix List is periodically 79refreshed, this avoids updates in too many different contexts. 80 81Added in 7.61.0. 82 83Note that when you use the multi interface, all easy handles added to the same 84multi handle shares PSL cache by default without using this option. 85 86## CURL_LOCK_DATA_HSTS 87 88The in-memory HSTS cache. 89 90It is not supported to share the HSTS between multiple concurrent threads. 91 92Added in 7.88.0 93 94# EXAMPLE 95 96~~~c 97int main(void) 98{ 99 CURLSHcode sh; 100 CURLSH *share = curl_share_init(); 101 sh = curl_share_setopt(share, CURLSHOPT_SHARE, CURL_LOCK_DATA_COOKIE); 102 if(sh) 103 printf("Error: %s\n", curl_share_strerror(sh)); 104} 105~~~ 106 107# AVAILABILITY 108 109Added in 7.10 110 111# RETURN VALUE 112 113CURLSHE_OK (zero) means that the option was set properly, non-zero means an 114error occurred. See libcurl-errors(3) for the full list with 115descriptions. 116
