                     27: .B #include <curl/curl.h>

                     31: .SH DESCRIPTION
                     32: This function will return a new curl handle, a duplicate, using all the
                     33: options previously set in the input curl \fIhandle\fP. Both handles can
                     34: subsequently be used independently and they must both be freed with
                     35: \fIcurl_easy_cleanup(3)\fP.
                     36: 
                     37: All strings that the input handle has been told to point to (as opposed to
                     38: copy) with previous calls to \fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP using char * inputs,
                     39: will be pointed to by the new handle as well. You must therefore make sure to
                     40: keep the data around until both handles have been cleaned up.
                     41: 
                     42: The new handle will \fBnot\fP inherit any state information, no connections,
                     43: no SSL sessions and no cookies. It also will not inherit any share object
                     44: states or options (it will be made as if \fICURLOPT_SHARE(3)\fP was set to
                     45: NULL).
                     46: 
                     47: In multi-threaded programs, this function must be called in a synchronous way,
                     48: the input handle may not be in use when cloned.
                     49: .SH RETURN VALUE
                     50: If this function returns NULL, something went wrong and no valid handle was
                     51: returned.
