I'm trying to use libcurl in a distinct pthread but the process gets
stuck in the callback function as the url works like a socket and is
constantly giving out data:
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION, callbackFunc);
Why would it get stuck because of that?
I would to implement a thread which allows to fork the libcurl process
whilst other threads are still running. Even if the url doesn't finish
giving out data.
What's the best way to implement this?
Start a new thread/process and call the libcurl functions in there?
Is there a better way to implement this other than making discrete and
manual connections to the url?
I don't understand. Are you using curl_easy_perform() to do the transfers?
Hi Dan,
Yes I am using curl_easy_perform() on the curl handle.
I think my issue has resolved itself by putting in a delay to some of
the operations in the threads. I am getting the expected behaviour as
shown by this example:

Thanks for your reply.
Regards,
Joe
