DESCRIPTION

137       libmemcached performs operations on a list of hosts. The order of these
138       hosts determine routing to keys. Functions are provided to add keys  to
139       memcached_st  structures.  To  manipulate  lists  of  servers  see mem‐
140       cached_server_st.
141
142       memcached_server_count() provides you a count of the current number  of
143       servers being used by a memcached_st structure.
144
145       memcached_server_add() pushes a single TCP server into the memcached_st
146       structure. This server will be placed at the  end.   Duplicate  servers
147       are  allowed,  so  duplication  is not checked. Executing this function
148       with the MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_USE_UDP  behavior  set  will  result  in  a
149       MEMCACHED_INVALID_HOST_PROTOCOL.
150
151       memcached_server_add_udp()   pushes   a  single  UDP  server  into  the
152       memcached_st structure. This server will be placed at the  end.  Dupli‐
153       cate servers are allowed, so duplication is not checked. Executing this
154       function without setting the MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_USE_UDP  behavior  will
155       result in a MEMCACHED_INVALID_HOST_PROTOCOL.
156
157       memcached_server_add_unix_socket() pushes a single UNIX socket into the
158       memcached_st structure. This UNIX socket will be  placed  at  the  end.
159       Duplicate  servers  are  allowed,  so  duplication  is not checked. The
160       length  of  the  filename  must  be  one  character  less   than   MEM‐
161       CACHED_MAX_HOST_LENGTH.
162
163       memcached_server_push() pushes an array of memcached_server_st into the
164       memcached_st structure. These servers will be placed at the end. Dupli‐
165       cate servers are allowed, so duplication is not checked. A copy is made
166       of structure so the list provided (and any operations on the list)  are
167       not saved.
168
169       memcached_server_by_key()  allows you to provide a key and retrieve the
170       server which would be used for assignment.
171
172       memcached_server_get_last_disconnect() returns a pointer  to  the  last
173       server  for which there was a connection problem. It does not mean this
174       particular server is currently dead but if the library is  reporting  a
175       server is, the returned server is a very good candidate.
176
177       memcached_server_cursor()  takes  a  memcached_st and loops through the
178       list of hosts currently in the cursor  calling  the  list  of  callback
179       functions  provided.  You  can  optionally  pass in a value via context
180       which will be provided to each callback function. An error return  from
181       any  callback  will  terminate  the loop.  memcached_server_cursor() is
182       passed the original caller memcached_st in its current state.
