This function will return a new curl handle, a duplicate, using all the
15
15
options previously set in the input curl \fIhandle\fP. Both handles can
16

subsequently be used independently and they must both be freed with

\fIcurl_easy_cleanup()\fP.

All strings that the input handle has been told to point to (as opposed to
20
copy) with previous calls to \fIcurl_easy_setopt\fP using char * inputs, will
21
be pointed to by the new handle as well. You must therefore make sure to keep
22
the data around until both handles have been cleaned up.
