/*
This is an "external" header file. Don't give away any internals here!
GOALS
o Enable a "pull" interface. The application that uses libcurl decides where
and when to ask libcurl to get/send data.
o Enable multiple simultaneous transfers in the same thread without making it
complicated for the application.
o Enable the application to select() on its own file descriptors and curl's
file descriptors simultaneous easily.
*/
/*
* This header file should not really need to include "curl.h" since curl.h
* itself includes this file and we expect user applications to do #include
* <curl/curl.h> without the need for especially including multi.h.
*
* For some reason we added this include here at one point, and rather than to
* break existing (wrongly written) libcurl applications, we leave it as-is
* but with this warning attached.

*
* Repeated calls to this function will return a new struct each

* that there is no more to get at this point.

* very basic informations. If more involved information is wanted,

* and that should/could/would be used in subsequent

* must never expose complex structs to applications, as then we'll
* undoubtably get backwards compatibility problems in the future.
