libcurl 多线程使用注意事项（补充）——HTTPS,openssl多线程使用加锁

问题

多线程libcurl运行一段时间后出现崩掉，没有确定的点，没有确定的URL。一直查看源代码没有问题，最后通过debug跟踪发现是在访问SSL的时候出现的crash。

才想起来openssl是不支持多线程的，要自己做加锁处理。而且libcurl中并没有支持相关的加锁操作。

解决办法：

在初始化libcurl的时候为openssl创建一个互斥锁函数，一个回调函数传给openss

openssl锁l函数原形 ：void (* func )(int ,int , const char * ,int)

设置方式：CRYPTO_set_locking_callback(void (* func )(int ,int , const char * ,int));

设置这样一个函数还不够，另外还要配置一个锁id回调函数，这个可以参考openssl多线程下的使用相关。

id函数原形：unsigned int (*func)(void)

设置方式：CRYPTO_set_id_callback(unsigned int (*func)(void));

通过这两个设置就可以解决HTTPS多线程请求出现crash的问题。

代码示例：

下面是引用了libcurl示例的一个代码

最关键就是，两个callback的实现，还有初始化锁（init_locks）和释放锁(kill_locks)的位置

}
else {

}
}
