.SH NAME
curl_global_init - Global libcurl initialisation
.SH SYNOPSIS
@ -17,13 +17,23 @@ 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.
The flags option is a bit pattern that tells libcurl exact what features to
init, as described below. Set the desired bits by ORing the values together.
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.

.TP 5
.B CURL_GLOBAL_ALL

.TP
.B CURL_GLOBAL_SSL

.TP
.B CURL_GLOBAL_NOTHING

.SH RETURN VALUE
If this function returns non-zero, something went wrong and you cannot use the
other curl functions.
