This PR adds a new provided method
write_context
toHandler
. In addition to the data buffer, it passes a context reference to theHandler
which allows theHandler
to act on the raw handle inside the callback.I need this capability to as part of the ongoing WebSockets support. When working with the writefunction model, users should be able to get metadata from
curl_ws_meta
or perform a blocking send usingcurl_ws_send
from inside the write function callback. With the context object, we can park these two methods under there.While this PR is not directly related to WebSockets, the access to the raw handle would be handy in certain cases.
