DESCRIPTION

124       libmemcached allows you to specify your own  memory  allocators,  opti‐
125       mized for your application. This enables libmemcached to be used inside
126       of applications that have their own malloc implementation.
127
128       memcached_set_memory_allocators() is used to set the memory  allocators
129       used  by  the memcached instance specified by ptr. Please note that you
130       cannot override only one of the memory allocators, you have to  specify
131       a complete new set if you want to override one of them. All of the mem‐
132       ory allocation functions should behave as specified in  the  C99  stan‐
133       dard.  Specify  NULL as all functions to reset them to the default val‐
134       ues.
135
136       memcached_get_memory_allocators() is used to  get  the  currently  used
137       memory allocators by a memcached handle.
138
139       memcached_get_memory_allocators_context()  returns  the void * that was
140       passed in during the call to memcached_set_memory_allocators().
141
142       The first argument to the memory allocator functions is a pointer to  a
143       memcached  structure, the is passed as const and you will need to clone
144       it in order to make use of any operation which would modify it.
145

NOTES

147       In version 0.38 all functions were modified  to  have  a  context  void
148       pointer  passed  to them. This was so that custom allocators could have
149       their own space for memory.
150

RETURN VALUE

152       memcached_set_memory_allocators() returns MEMCACHED_SUCCESS  upon  suc‐
153       cess,  and  MEMCACHED_FAILURE if you don't pass a complete set of func‐
154       tion pointers.
