DESCRIPTION

38       libmemcached(3) allows you to specify your own memory allocators, opti‐
39       mized for your application. This enables libmemcached to be used inside
40       of applications that have their own malloc implementation.
41
42       memcached_set_memory_allocators()  is used to set the memory allocators
43       used by the memcached instance specified by ptr. Please note  that  you
44       cannot  override only one of the memory allocators, you have to specify
45       a complete new set if you want to override one of them. All of the mem‐
46       ory  allocation  functions  should behave as specified in the C99 stan‐
47       dard. Specify NULL as all functions to reset them to the  default  val‐
48       ues.
49
50       memcached_get_memory_allocators()  is  used  to  get the currently used
51       memory allocators by a mamcached handle.
52
53       memcached_get_memory_allocators_context() returns the void *  that  was
54       passed in during the call to memcached_set_memory_allocators().
55
56       The  first argument to the memory allocator functions is a pointer to a
57       memcached structure, the is passed as const and you will need to  clone
58       it in order to make use of any operation which would modify it.

NOTES

61       In  version  0.38  all  functions  were modified to have a context void
62       pointer passed to them. This was so that customer allocators could have
63       their own space for memory.
64

RETURN

66       memcached_set_memory_allocators()  return  MEMCACHED_SUCCESS  upon suc‐
67       cess, and MEMCACHED_FAILURE if you don't pass a complete set  of  func‐
68       tion pointers.
