I've used Curl in both C and PHP and was very pleased with it's functionality. In addition, I have used it to process single files and an array of files ala 10_at_a_time. What I have not been able to do is to call curl so that I can download say 4000 images then do a bunch of other non related processing [during which processing I am reloading the array] and then to process the newly refilled array, even though I follow essentially the same process that works with a single file. In gdb it seems like a pointer failure that occurs while processing from as little as 1 and as many as 10 before abending in various places. Here's an example:
*** glibc detected *** ./insertProducts: corrupted double-linked list: 0x0000000000fb2270 *** Although I am using a fair number of pointers, I am not doing anything with a double-linked list. Because I have about a thousand lines of C code that needs to process between calls to Curl, embedding them within Curl [as I've done on occasion when processing 1 at a time] is a bit challenging to implement - not impossible be difficult. So, before I move in that direction I thought I'd ask if there's any example code where Curl is called multiple times [and] processes an array of url downloads during each iteration. Again, 1 at a time is not a problem; many at a time is. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
