Hi, I need a proper solution to cancel curl_easy_perform that is running on a separate thread. My initial approach was to save the handle, then on the main thread, try to interfere it by , e.g.
curl_easy_setopt(m_sseHandle, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS, 1); It did work, but then i read below it's unsafe to access the same handle across different threads. Are the points in this posting (from 13 years ago) still valid? https://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2007-09/0097.html Curl: Re: how to stop curl_easy_perform()<https://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2007-09/0097.html> From: Daniel Stenberg <daniel_at_haxx.se> Date: Thu, 13 Sep 2007 15:54:15 +0200 (CEST).

Modern mail clients and the web archives etc all use threading information curl.haxx.se Questions: * is it still unsafe to use the same handle in more than 1 thread? * is the progress callback the only proper way to cancel curl_easy_perform? It works, but there's overhead of the callback being triggered every second. Please advise, i very much need a solution soon. Thank you so much for your attention. Regards, Winnie
