# NAME
CURLINFO_NUM_CONNECTS - number of created connections
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_NUM_CONNECTS, long *nump);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a long to receive how many new connections libcurl had to
create to achieve the previous transfer (only the successful connects are
counted). Combined with CURLINFO_REDIRECT_COUNT(3) you are able to know how
many times libcurl successfully reused existing connection(s) or not. See the
connection options of curl_easy_setopt(3) to see how libcurl tries to make
persistent connections to save time.
# %PROTOCOLS%
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode result;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1L);
result = curl_easy_perform(curl);
if(result == CURLE_OK) {
long connects;
result = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_NUM_CONNECTS, &connects);
if(!result)
printf("It needed %ld connects\n", connects);
}
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
}
~~~
# %AVAILABILITY%
# RETURN VALUE
curl_easy_getinfo(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.
CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see
libcurl-errors(3).
