CURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHcurl_easy_setopt optCURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHE(3)

NAME
       CURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHE - global DNS cache

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHE,
                                 long enable);

DESCRIPTION
       Has no function since 7.62.0. Do not use!

       Pass  a  long.  If the enable value is 1, it tells curl to use a global
       DNS cache that will survive between easy  handle  creations  and  dele-
       tions. This is not thread-safe and this will use a global variable.

       WARNING: this option is considered obsolete. Stop using it. Switch over
       to  using  the  share  interface  instead!  See  CURLOPT_SHARE(3)   and
       curl_share_init(3).

DEFAULT
       0

PROTOCOLS
       All

EXAMPLE
       CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
         CURLcode ret;
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
         /* switch off the use of a global, thread unsafe, cache */
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHE, 0L);
         ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
         curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
       }

AVAILABILITY
       Deprecated since 7.62.0. Has no function.

RETURN VALUE
       Returns  CURLE_OK  if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION
       if not.
