       libmemcached_examples - libmemcached Documentation

       Examples for libmemcached

DESCRIPTION

       For  full examples, test cases are found in tests/*.c in the main distribution.  These are
       always up to date, and are used for each test run of the library.

CONNECTING TO SERVERS

          const char *config_string =
            "--SERVER=host10.example.com "
            "--SERVER=host11.example.com "
            "--SERVER=host10.example.com";
          memcached_st *memc= memcached(config_string, strlen(config_string);
          {
            // ...
          }
           memcached_free(memc);

       In the above code you create a memcached_st object with three  server  by  making  use  of
       memcached_create().

CREATING A POOL OF SERVERS

          const char *config_string =
            "--SERVER=host10.example.com "
            "--SERVER=host11.example.com "
            "--SERVER=host10.example.com";

          memcached_pool_st* pool= memcached_pool(config_string, strlen(config_string));

          memcached_return_t rc;

          memcached_st *memc= memcached_pool_pop(pool, false, &rc);

          // .... do work

          /*
            Release the memc_ptr that was pulled from the pool
          */
          memcached_pool_push(pool, memc);

          /*
            Destroy the pool.
          */
          memcached_pool_destroy(pool);

       In the above code you create a memcached_pool_st object with three server by making use of
       memcached_pool().

       When memcached_pool_destroy() all memory will be released  that  is  associated  with  the
       pool.

ADDING A VALUE TO THE SERVER

          char *key= "foo";
          char *value= "value";
          time_t expires = 0;
          uint32_t flags = 0;

          memcached_return_t rc = memcached_set(memc,
                                               key, strlen(key),
                                               value, value_length,
                                               expires, flags);

          if (rc != MEMCACHED_SUCCESS)
          {
              // handle failure
          }

       It is best practice to always look at the return value of any operation.

FETCHING MULTIPLE VALUES

          memcached_return_t rc;
          char *keys[]= {"fudge", "son", "food"};
          size_t key_length[]= {5, 3, 4};
          unsigned int x;
          uint32_t flags;

          char return_key[MEMCACHED_MAX_KEY];
          size_t return_key_length;
          char *return_value;
          size_t return_value_length;

          rc= memcached_mget(memc, keys, key_length, 3);

          x= 0;
          while ((return_value= memcached_fetch(memc, return_key, &return_key_length,
                                           &return_value_length, &flags, &rc)))
          {
              free(return_value);
              x++;
          }

       Notice that you freed values returned from memcached_fetch(). The define MEMCACHED_MAX_KEY
       is provided for usage.
