Either (1) use the multi API or (2) create a CURLSH structure using curl_share_init(), set it up to be a DNS cache, set its lock/unlock callbacks, and assign it to your easy handle(s) using the option CURLOPT_SHARE. For the latter, see the man pages for curl_share_init and curl_share_setopt for details.
