32 Pass a long. Set to 1 to make the next transfer use a new (fresh) connection
33 by force instead of trying to re-use an existing one. This option should be
34 used with caution and only if you understand what it does as it may seriously
37 Related functionality is \fICURLOPT_FORBID_REUSE(3)\fP which makes sure the
38 connection is closed after use so that it won't be re-used.
40 Set \fIfresh\fP to 0 to have libcurl attempt re-using an existing connection
