NAME
     curlglobalinitmem - Global  libcurl  initialisation  with
     memory callbacks

SYNOPSIS
     #include 
     CURLcode curlglobalinitmem(long  flags,
      curlmalloccallback  m,
      curlfreecallback  f,
      curlrealloccallback  r,
      curlstrdupcallback  s,
      curlcalloccallback  c );

DESCRIPTION
     This function works exactly as curlglobalinit(3) with  one
     addition:  it  allows  the  application  to set callbacks to
     replace the otherwise used internal memory functions.

     This man page only adds documentation for the callbacks, see
     the  curlglobalinit(3) man page for all the rest. When you
     use this function, all callback arguments  must  be  set  to
     valid function pointers.

     The prototypes for the given callbacks should match these:

     void *malloccallback(sizet size);
          To replace malloc()

     void freecallback(void *ptr);
          To replace free()

     void *realloccallback(void *ptr, sizet size);
          To replace realloc()

     char *strdupcallback(const char *str);
          To replace strdup()

     void *calloccallback(sizet nmemb, sizet size);
          To replace calloc()

CAUTION
     Manipulating these gives considerable powers to the applica-
     tion to severly screw things up for libcurl. Take care!
