CURLOPT_MAXLIFETIME_CONN(3)         libcurl        CURLOPT_MAXLIFETIME_CONN(3)

NAME
       CURLOPT_MAXLIFETIME_CONN  -  max  lifetime (since creation) allowed for
       reusing a connection

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_MAXLIFETIME_CONN,
                                 long maxlifetime);

DESCRIPTION
       Pass a long as parameter containing maxlifetime - the maximum  time  in
       seconds, since the creation of the connection, that you allow an exist-
       ing connection to have to be considered for reuse for this request.

       libcurl features a connection cache that holds previously used  connec-
       tions.  When a new request is to be done, libcurl considers any connec-
       tion that matches for reuse. The CURLOPT_MAXLIFETIME_CONN(3) limit pre-
       vents  libcurl  from  trying too old connections for reuse. This can be
       used for client-side load balancing. If a connection is  found  in  the
       cache that is older than this set maxlifetime, it is instead marked for
       closure.

       If set to 0, this behavior is disabled: all  connections  are  eligible
       for reuse.

DEFAULT
       Default maxlifetime is 0 seconds (i.e., disabled).

PROTOCOLS
       All

EXAMPLE
       CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");

         /* only allow each connection to be reused for 30 seconds */
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_MAXLIFETIME_CONN, 30L);

         curl_easy_perform(curl);
       }

AVAILABILITY
       Added in 7.80.0

RETURN VALUE
       Returns CURLE_OK.
