Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ CURLWrapper() [1/3]

mastodonpp::CURLWrapper::CURLWrapper ( )

Initializes curl and sets up connection.

The first time an instance of CURLWrapper is created, it calls curl_global_init, which is not thread-safe. For more information consult curl_global_init(3).

Since
0.1.0
59 {
60  init();
61 }

◆ CURLWrapper() [2/3]

mastodonpp::CURLWrapper::CURLWrapper ( const CURLWrapper )

Copy constructor. Does the same as the Constructor.

Since
0.5.2
64 {
65  init();
66 }

◆ CURLWrapper() [3/3]

mastodonpp::CURLWrapper::CURLWrapper ( CURLWrapper &&  other)
deletenoexcept

Move constructor.

◆ ~CURLWrapper()

mastodonpp::CURLWrapper::~CURLWrapper ( )
virtualnoexcept

Cleans up curl and connection.

May call curl_global_cleanup, which is not thread-safe. For more information consult curl_global_cleanup(3).

Since
0.1.0
69 {
70  curl_easy_cleanup(_connection);
71 
72  --curlwrapper_instances;
73  debuglog << "CURLWrapper instances: " << curlwrapper_instances << " (-1)\n";

Member Function Documentation

◆ cancel_stream()

void mastodonpp::CURLWrapper::cancel_stream ( )
inlineprotected

Cancel the stream.

The stream will be cancelled, usually whithin a second. The curl_error_code of the answer will be set to 42 (CURLE_ABORTED_BY_CALLBACK).

Since
0.1.0
210  {
211  _stream_cancelled = true;
212  }

◆ escape_url()

For more information consult curl_easy_escape(3).

Parameters
urlString to escape.
Returns
The escaped string or {} if it failed.
Since

You can use this handle to set or modify curl options. For more information consult curl_easy_setopt(3).

Since
0.1.0
109  {
110  return _connection;
111  }

◆ make_request()
