CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT(3) Library Functions Manual CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT(3)
NAME
CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT - force a new connection to be used
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT, long fresh);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a long. Set to 1 to make the next transfer use a new (fresh)
connection by force instead of trying to reuse an existing one. This
option should be used with caution and only if you understand what it
does as it may impact performance negatively.
Related functionality is CURLOPT_FORBID_REUSE(3) which makes sure the
connection is closed after use so that it cannot be reused.
Set fresh to 0 to have libcurl attempt reusing an existing connection
(default behavior).
DEFAULT
0
PROTOCOLS
This functionality affects all supported protocols
EXAMPLE
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {

curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT, 1L);
/* this transfer must use a new connection, not reuse an existing */
curl_easy_perform(curl);
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
