CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT(3)   curl_easy_setopt options   CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT(3)

NAME
       CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT - force a new connection to be used

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT, long
       fresh);

DESCRIPTION
       Pass a long. Set to 1 to make the next transfer use a new (fresh)
       connection by force instead of trying to re-use an existing one.  This
       option should be used with caution and only if you understand what it
       does as it may seriously impact performance.

       Related functionality is _FORBID_REUSE&section=3">CURLOPT_FORBID_REUSE(3) which makes sure the
       connection is closed after use so that it won't be re-used.

       Set fresh to 0 to have libcurl attempt re-using an existing connection
       (default behavior).

DEFAULT
       0
