It doesn't "return", but it does call a number of user-specified callback functions at regular intervals, so the application can gain control at regular intervals. However, the handle can't be transferred to a different thread at this times because the call stack ends up going through curl functions. What you appear to want to do can probably be done with the multi interface, as that does actually return to the application regularly. You would have to be very careful, naturally, and this isn't a recommended use case, but it would probably work. >>> Dan ------------------------------------------------------------------- List admin: http://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html
