# NAME
CURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHE - global DNS cache
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#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 survives between easy handle creations and deletions. This is not
thread-safe and this uses a global variable.
See CURLOPT_SHARE(3) and curl_share_init(3) for the correct way to
share DNS cache between transfers.
# DEFAULT
0
# PROTOCOLS
All
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
int main(void)
{
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);
}
}
