.SH NAME
curl_global_cleanup - global libcurl cleanup
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B #include <curl/curl.h>

.BI "void curl_global_cleanup(void);"

.SH DESCRIPTION
This function releases resources acquired by \fBcurl_global_init(3)\fP.
You should call \fIcurl_global_cleanup(3)\fP once for each call you make to
\fIcurl_global_init(3)\fP, after you are done using libcurl.
\fBThis function is not thread safe.\fP You must not call it when any other
thread in the program (i.e. a thread sharing the same memory) is running.
This doesn't just mean no other thread that is using libcurl. Because
\fBcurl_global_cleanup(3)\fP calls functions of other libraries that are
similarly thread unsafe, it could conflict with any other thread that uses
these other libraries.
See the description in \fBlibcurl(3)\fP of global environment requirements for
details of how to use this function.
