Hi,
I'm looking to make use of CURLOPT_RESOLVE, and would like to get a
couple clarifications on its semantics.
The basic question is this: is the list that the application provides as
the argument to CURLOPT_RESOLVE
treated as incremental updates to an internal DNS cache, or is it
effectively the cache itself?
Or, more specifically:
1: what is the expected lifetime of the list? Can it be freed
immediately after the curl_easy_setopt(h, CURLOPT_RESOLVE,list) call
completes?
(The example seems to imply that the list needs to persist while a
handle is using it; however this is not explicitly stated anywhere I
could find).
2. If the list must persist after the setopt call: how should updates be
handled? E.g.:
- providing a new list to curl
- updating the existing list, still having to call ...setopt()
- updating the existing list, expecting curl to just pick up the
change next time it resolves
Thanks in advance!
