\nAs you can see from the Figure 2 on the previous page, the curl_getinfo($curl)<\/code> method lists some curl info, like the url, connect_time and so on:\n<\/div>\n
\nArray\n(\n[url] => http:\/\/www.google.ro\n[content_type] => text\/html; charset=ISO-8859-2\n[http_code] => 200\n[header_size] => 604\n[request_size] => 52\n[filetime] => -1\n[ssl_verify_result] => 0\n[redirect_count] => 0\n[total_time] => 1.125\n[namelookup_time] => 0.265\n[connect_time] => 0.5\n[pretransfer_time] => 0.5\n[size_upload] => 0\n[size_download] => 27552\n[speed_download] => 24490\n[speed_upload] => 0\n[download_content_length] => -1\n[upload_content_length] => 0\n[starttransfer_time] => 0.734\n[redirect_time] => 0\n[certinfo] => Array\n(\n)\n\n)\n<\/pre>\n
\nThe example below simulates the multithreading mechanism by initializating a new session and returns a cURL handle, sets the options for the http:\/\/www.google.ro<\/em> and http:\/\/ro.yahoo.com\/?p=us<\/em> URLs, executes the cURL session and then prints the results using the curl_getinfo<\/code> method:\n<\/div>\n
\n<:!--?php\n\n\/\/ Creating an array of URLs that will be used below\n$urls_array = array('http:\/\/www.google.ro',' http:\/\/ro.yahoo.com\/?p=us');\n\n$curl_array = array();\n\n\/\/ Initializes a new session and return a cURL multi handle for use with the curl_setopt(), curl_exec() and curl_close() functions\n$curl_multi_handle = curl_multi_init();\n\n\/\/ Use the urls_array array for initialize a single session, set the transfer and to add a normal cURL handle to a cURL multi handle\nfor($i = 0; $i  0) ;\n\necho \"results: \";\n\nfor($i = 0; $i \n<\/pre>\n
<\/p>\n
\nFigure 3<\/strong>: The above application simulates the cURL mechanism using some control structures and some of the most important cURL methods like curl_setopt<\/code>, curl_multi_exec<\/code> and curl_multi_getcontent<\/code>.\n<\/div>\n
Conclusion<\/h2>\n
\nIn this article you have seen how to make the libcurl library functional in PHP, how to executes cURL sessions, how to print curl info like HTTP response code and content type, and how to simulates the cURL mechanism.\n<\/div>\n
