Thank you for your reply! Do you mean that although an explicit call to curl_global_init is not thread safe, an implicit call from, e.g., curl_easy_init is still thread safe? So that in a multi-threaded process I would not want to explicitely call curl_global_init but rather would call curl_easy_init and rely on the implicit initialization?

On the other hand, the description of curl_global_init states: "This function is not thread safe. 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." >> >>What is right? >> > libcurl is completely thread safe, except for THREE issues: > - signals > - SSL/TLS handlers > - curl_global_init > >We should update the docs to specify this and nothing else! > >-- > > / daniel.haxx.se >------------------------------------------------------------------- >List admin: http://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library >Etiquette:  http://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html > ------------------------------------------------------------------- List admin: http://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette:  http://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html
