DESCRIPTION

25       memcached_create() is used to create a memcached_st structure that will
26       then be used by other libmemcached(3) functions to communicate with the
27       server. You should either pass a statically  declared  memcached_st  to
28       memcached_create()  or  a NULL. If a NULL passed in then a structure is
29       allocated for you.
30
31       Please note, when  you  write  new  application  use  memcached()  over
32       memcached_create().
33
34       memcached_clone()  is  similar  to memcached_create() but it copies the
35       defaults and list of servers from the source memcached_st. If you  pass
36       a  null  as  the  argument for the source to clone, it is the same as a
37       call to memcached_create().  If the  destination  argument  is  NULL  a
38       memcached_st will be allocated for you.
39
40       memcached_servers_reset()  allows  you  to zero out the list of servers
41       that the memcached_st has.
42
43       To clean up memory associated with a memcached_st structure you  should
44       pass   it   to   memcached_free()  when  you  are  finished  using  it.
45       memcached_free() is the only way to make sure all memory is deallocated
46       when you finish using the structure.
47
48       You  may  wish to avoid using memcached_create(3) or memcached_clone(3)
49       with a stack based allocation. The most common issues  related  to  ABI
50       safety involve heap allocated structures.
51

RETURN

53       memcached_create()  returns a pointer to the memcached_st that was cre‐
54       ated (or initialized). On an allocation failure, it returns NULL.
55
56       memcached_clone() returns a pointer to the memcached_st that  was  cre‐
57       ated (or initialized). On an allocation failure, it returns NULL.
