28 CURLMcode curl_multi_add_handle(CURLM *multi_handle, CURL *easy_handle);
31 Adds a standard easy handle to the multi stack. This function call will make
32 this \fImulti_handle\fP control the specified \fIeasy_handle\fP.
33 Furthermore, libcurl now initiates the connection associated with the
34 specified \fIeasy_handle\fP.
36 When an easy handle has been added to a multi stack, you can not and you must
37 not use \fIcurl_easy_perform(3)\fP on that handle!
39 If the easy handle is not set to use a shared (CURLOPT_SHARE) or global DNS
40 cache (CURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHE), it will be made to use the DNS cache
41 that is shared between all easy handles within the multi handle when
42 \fIcurl_multi_add_handle(3)\fP is called.
44 The easy handle will remain added until you remove it again with
45 \fIcurl_multi_remove_handle(3)\fP. You should remove the easy handle from the
46 multi stack before you terminate first the easy handle and then the multi
