Curl_Multi can be used to make asynchronous curl calls.
When making an asynchronous call, you first add individual curl handles
to the class using the {@link Curl_Multi::addHandle() addHandle()} method.
Next you must periodically invoke the {@link Curl_Multi::poll() poll()} command.
PHP is (usually) not a multi-threaded language, so curl events will not be processed
in the background, and will only be processed with subsequent calls to poll().
poll() is non-blocking, so it will not interrupt your application if there is
nothing to do.
When data is received from the request, the callback method supplied in the
{@link Curl_Multi::addHandle() addHandle()} method will be called. The prototype
for this callback is: callback($curl_result_info, $curl_data, $user_data)
Additional requests may be added at any time, they do not have to be added all at once.
Unit tests were run using PHPUnit 3.3.9 with 100% code coverage.
To run unit tests:
