.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
This function extracts file descriptor information from a given multi_handle.
|
2005-04-18 07:01:46 +08:00
|
|
|
libcurl returns its fd_set sets. The application can use these to select() on,
|
|
|
|
but be sure to FD_ZERO them before calling this function as
|
2008-12-29 05:56:56 +08:00
|
|
|
\fIcurl_multi_fdset(3)\fP only adds its own descriptors, it doesn't zero or
|
|
|
|
otherwise remove any others. The \fIcurl_multi_perform(3)\fP function should be
|
|
|
|
called as soon as one of them is ready to be read from or written to.
|
2002-05-03 06:34:31 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2009-12-28 04:54:26 +08:00
|
|
|
To be sure to have up-to-date results, you should call
|
|
|
|
\fIcurl_multi_perform\fP until it does not return CURLM_CALL_MULTI_PERFORM
|
|
|
|
prior to calling \fIcurl_multi_fdset\fP. This will make sure that libcurl has
|
|
|
|
updated the handles' socket states.
|
|
|
|
|
2005-04-25 16:55:55 +08:00
|
|
|
If no file descriptors are set by libcurl, \fImax_fd\fP will contain -1 when
|
|
|
|
this function returns. Otherwise it will contain the higher descriptor number
|
|
|
|
libcurl set.
|
|
|
|
|
2010-01-27 07:02:13 +08:00
|
|
|
When doing select(), you should use \fBcurl_multi_timeout\fP to figure out how
|
|
|
|
long to wait for action. Call \fIcurl_multi_perform\fP even if no activity has
|
|
|
|
been seen on the fd_sets after the timeout expires as otherwise internal
|
|
|
|
retries and timeouts may not work as you'd think and want.
