NAME

6       CURLOPT_FORBID_REUSE - make connection get closed at once after use
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <curl/curl.h>
10
11       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_FORBID_REUSE, long close);
12

DESCRIPTION

14       Pass  a  long. Set close to 1 to make libcurl explicitly close the con‐
15       nection when done with the transfer. Normally, libcurl keeps  all  con‐
16       nections  alive  when  done  with one transfer in case a succeeding one
17       follows that can re-use them.  This option should be used with  caution
18       and only if you understand what it does as it can seriously impact per‐
19       formance.
20
21       Set to 0 to have libcurl keep the connection open  for  possible  later
22       re-use (default behavior).
