I am using multi handle for my application. I have a select call on the curl
FDs, and on return of select, i do multi_perform depending upon the return
value of select . The timeout for select is 1 min. I have a problem here
since if the select is blocked for 1 mins, and if I want to close my
application, it hangs for one min.
I cannot reduce the 1 min timeout. Is it possible to use any curl APIs to
break this select?
Sure you can reduce the timeout, you can call it again in a loop if it timed
out.
Another option is to let the select() also wait for an additional file
descriptor, for example a pipe that you write to when you want to make
select() trigger.
