+.TH GNURLOPT_RESOLVER_START_FUNCTION 3 "14 Feb 2018" "libcurl 7.59.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"
+.SH NAME
+CURLOPT_RESOLVER_START_FUNCTION \- set callback to be called before a new resolve request is started
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+#include <gnurl/curl.h>
+
+int resolver_start_cb(void *resolver_state, void *reserved, void *userdata);
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle,
+ CURLOPT_RESOLVER_START_FUNCTION,
+ resolver_start_cb);
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Pass a pointer to your callback function, which should match the prototype
+shown above.
+
+This callback function gets called by libcurl every time before a new resolve
+request is started.
+
+\fIresolver_state\fP points to a backend-specific resolver state. Currently
+only the ares resolver backend has a resolver state. It can be used to set up
+any desired option on the ares channel before it's used, for example setting up
+socket callback options.
+
+\fIreserved\fP is reserved.
+
+\fIuserdata\fP is the user pointer set with the
+\fICURLOPT_RESOLVER_START_DATA(3)\fP option.
+
+The callback must return 0 on success. Returning a non-zero value will cause
+the resolve to fail.
+.SH DEFAULT
+NULL (No callback)
+.SH PROTOCOLS
+All
+.SH EXAMPLE
+.nf
+static int resolver_start_cb(void *resolver_state, void *reserved,
+ void *userdata)
+{
+ (void)reserved;
+ printf("Received resolver_state=%p userdata=%p\\n",
+ resolver_state, userdata);
+ return 0;
+}
+
+CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
+if(curl) {
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_RESOLVER_START_FUNCTION, resolver_start_cb);
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_RESOLVER_START_DATA, curl);
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://example.com");
+ curl_easy_perform(curl);
+ curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
+}
+.fi
+.SH AVAILABILITY
+Added in 7.59.0
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+Returns CURLE_OK
