DESCRIPTION

43       libmemcached implements a custom language for configuring and modifying
44       servers. By passing in an option string you can generate a memcached_st
45       object that you can use in your application directly.
46
47   General Options:
48       --SERVER=<servername>:<optional_port>/?<optional_weight>
49              Provide a servername to be used by the client.
50
51              Providing  a weight will cause weighting to occur with all hosts
52              with each server getting a default weight of 1.
53
54       --SOCKET=\"<filepath>/?<optional_weight>\"
55              Provide a filepath to a UNIX socket  file.  Providing  a  weight
56              will  cause  weighting  to occur with all hosts with each server
57              getting a default weight of 1.
58
59       --VERIFY-KEY
60              Verify that keys that are being used fit within  the  design  of
61              the protocol being used.
62
63       --REMOVE_FAILED_SERVERS
64              Enable the behavior MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_REMOVE_FAILED_SERVERS.
65
66       --BINARY-PROTOCOL
67              Force all connections to use the binary protocol.
68
69       --BUFFER-REQUESTS
70              Please see MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_BUFFER_REQUESTS.
71
72       --CONFIGURE-FILE=
73              Provide a configuration file to be used to load requests. Beware
74              that by using  a  configuration  file  libmemcached  will  reset
75              memcached_st based on information only contained in the file.
76
77       --CONNECT-TIMEOUT=
78              See                 memcached_behavior_set()                 for
79              MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_CONNECT_TIMEOUT.
80
81       --DISTRIBUTION=
82              Set  the  distribution  model   used   by   the   client.    See
83              memcached_behavior_set() for more details.
84
85       --HASH=
86              Set the hashing algorithm used for placing keys on servers.
87
88       --HASH-WITH-NAMESPACE
89              When enabled the prefix key will be added to the key when deter‐
90              mining which server to store the data in.
91
92       --NOREPLY
93              Enable "no reply" for all calls that support this. It is  highly
94              recommended  that  you  use this option with the binary protocol
95              only.
96
97       --NUMBER-OF-REPLICAS=
98              Set the number of servers that keys will be replicated to.
99
100       --RANDOMIZE-REPLICA-READ
101              Select randomly the server within the replication pool  to  read
102              from.
103
104       --SORT-HOSTS
105              When  adding  new  servers  always  calculate their distribution
106              based on sorted naming order.
107
108       --SUPPORT-CAS
109              See memcached_behavior_set() for MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_SUPPORT_CAS
110
111       --USE-UDP
112              See memcached_behavior_set() for MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_USE_UDP
113
114       --NAMESPACE=
115              A namespace is a container that provides context for keys,  only
116              other  requests that know the namespace can access these values.
117              This is accomplished by prepending the namespace  value  to  all
118              keys.
119
120   Memcached Pool Options:
121       --POOL-MIN
122              Initial size of pool.
123
124       --POOL-MAX

ENVIRONMENT

180

RETURN VALUE

182       memcached()  returns a pointer to the memcached_st that was created (or
183       initialized).  On an allocation failure, it returns NULL.
184

EXAMPLE

186          const char *config_string=
187            "--SERVER=host10.example.com "
188            "--SERVER=host11.example.com "
189            "--SERVER=host10.example.com";
190          memcached_st *memc= memcached(config_string, strlen(config_string));
191          {
192            // ...
193          }
194          memcached_free(memc);
