I have used multi -interface for this purpose where for each transfer a
separate connection to the server is made . Is there a way to maintain just
1 connection and download multiple files (say from Filezilla . In fact
Filezilla supports 50 threads )

Thanks in advance..

Have you read the docs? Each easy handle added to a multi handle will make a

transfer. Each single transfer connects to the server and performs the
operation.

You can't assume that the server uses threads at all. You can however of
course tell libcurl to (attempt to) download multiple things from the same
server.
