Here is the scenario I want to execute :-

1. Use curl to post some data to a server using curl_easy_perform

2. Extract the socket used in 1 using CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET

3. Use the socket got from 2 to determine and receive further data from the server(using select and recv on the socket) from time to time on an ongoing basis until the communication is teared.

I saw that the CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET is only used with CONNECT_ONLY, so I am wondering if my above usage makes sense or wont work. I am currently trying this scenario out but was wondering if this would work or not.

Another question was in what thread context the CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION is called.

Is it curl's own thread context or the thread context in which function was registered.

Regards
Mayank
