.SH NAME
curl_multi_wakeup - wakes up a sleeping curl_multi_poll call
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLMcode curl_multi_wakeup(CURLM *multi_handle);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
This function can be called from any thread and it wakes up a sleeping
\fIcurl_multi_poll(3)\fP call that is currently (or is about to be) waiting
for activity or a timeout.
If the function is called when there is no \fIcurl_multi_poll(3)\fP call, it
causes the next call to return immediately.
Calling this function only guarantees to wake up the current (or the next if
there is no current) \fIcurl_multi_poll(3)\fP call, which means it is possible
that multiple calls to this function wake up the same waiting operation.
This function has no effect on \fIcurl_multi_wait(3)\fP calls.
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
extern int time_to_die(void);
extern int set_something_to_signal_thread_1_to_exit(void);
extern int decide_to_stop_thread1();
int main(void)
{
CURL *easy;
CURLM *multi;
int still_running;
/* add the individual easy handle */
curl_multi_add_handle(multi, easy);
/* this is thread 1 */
do {
CURLMcode mc;
int numfds;
mc = curl_multi_perform(multi, &still_running);
if(mc == CURLM_OK) {
/* wait for activity, timeout or wakeup */
mc = curl_multi_poll(multi, NULL, 0, 10000, &numfds);
}
if(time_to_die())
return 1;
} while(still_running);
curl_multi_remove_handle(multi, easy);
/* this is thread 2 */
if(decide_to_stop_thread1()) {
set_something_to_signal_thread_1_to_exit();
curl_multi_wakeup(multi);
}
}
