NAME
       curlmultiinforead - read multi stack informationals

SYNOPSIS
       #include 

       CURLMsg *curlmultiinforead( CURLM *multihandle,
                                      int *msgsinqueue);

DESCRIPTION
       Ask  the multi handle if there are any messages/informationals from the
       individual transfers. Messages may include informationals  such  as  an
       error  code  from the transfer or just the fact that a transfer is com-
       pleted. More details on these should be written down as well.

       Repeated calls to this function will return a  new  struct  each  time,
       until  a  NULL  is returned as a signal that there is no more to get at
       this point. The integer pointed to with msgsinqueue will contain  the
       number of remaining messages after this function was called.

       The  data  the  returned  pointer  points  to  will not survive calling
       curlmulticleanup(3) or curlmultiremovehandle(3).

       The 'CURLMsg' struct is very simple and only contain very basic  infor-
       mation.   If  more involved information is wanted, the particular "easy
       handle" in present in that struct and can thus be  used  in  subsequent
       regular curleasygetinfo(3) calls (or similar):

        struct CURLMsg {
          CURLMSG msg;       /* what this message means */
          CURL *easyhandle; /* the handle it concerns */
          union {
            void *whatever;    /* message-specific data */
            CURLcode result;   /* return code for transfer */
          } data;
        };

RREETTUURRNN VVAALLUUEE
       A  pointer  to  a  filled-in struct, or NULL if it failed or ran out of
       structs. It also writes the number of messages left in the queue (after
       this read) in the integer the second argument points to.
