memcached_get() is used to fetch an individual value from the server. You
77
must pass in a key and its length to fetch the object. You must supply
78
three pointer variables which will give you the state of the returned
79
object. A uint32_t pointer to contain whatever flags you stored with the value,
80
a size_t pointer which will be filled with size of of the object, and a
81
memcached_return_t pointer to hold any error. The object will be returned
82
upon success and NULL will be returned on failure. Any object returned by
83
memcached_get() must be released by the caller application.
85
memcached_mget() is used to select multiple keys at once. For multiple key
86
operations it is always faster to use this function. This function always
87
works asynchronously. memcached_fetch() is then used to retrieve any keys
88
found. No error is given on keys that are not found. You must call either
89
memcached_fetch() or memcached_fetch_result() after a successful call to
90
memcached_mget(). You should continue to call these functions until they
91
return NULL (aka no more values). If you need to quit in the middle of a
92
memcached_get() call, execute a memcached_quit(). After you do this, you can
93
issue new queries against the server.
95
memcached_fetch() is used to fetch an individual value from the server.
96
memcached_mget() must always be called before using this method. You
97
must pass in a key and its length to fetch the object. You must supply
98
three pointer variables which will give you the state of the returned
99
object. A uint32_t pointer to contain whatever flags you stored with the value,
100
a size_t pointer which will be filled with size of of the object, and a
101
memcached_return_t pointer to hold any error. The object will be returned
102
upon success and NULL will be returned on failure. \fBMEMCACHD_END\fP is
103
returned by the *error value when all objects that have been found are
104
returned. The final value upon \fBMEMCACHED_END\fP is null. Values
105
returned by memcached_fetch() must be freed by the caller. memcached_fetch()
106
will be DEPRECATED in the near future, memcached_fetch_result() should be
109
memcached_fetch_result() is used to return a memcached_result_st(3) structure
110
from a memcached server. The result object is forward compatible with changes
111
to the server. For more information please refer to the memcached_result_st(3)
112
help. This function will dynamically allocate a result structure for you
113
if you do not pass one to the function.
115
memcached_fetch_execute() is a callback function for result sets. Instead
116
of returning the results to you for processing, it passes each of the
117
result sets to the list of functions you provide. It passes to the function
118
a memcached_st that can be cloned for use in the called function (it can not
119
be used directly). It also passes a result set which does not need to be freed.
120
Finally it passes a "context". This is just a pointer to a memory reference
121
you supply the calling function. Currently only one value is being passed
122
to each function call. In the future there will be an option to allow this
125
memcached_mget_execute() and memcached_mget_execute_by_key() is
126
similar to memcached_mget(), but it may trigger the supplied callbacks
127
with result sets while sending out the queries. If you try to perform
128
a really large multiget with memcached_mget() you may encounter a
129
deadlock in the OS kernel (it will fail to write data to the socket because
130
the input buffer is full). memcached_mget_execute() solves this
131
problem by processing some of the results before continuing sending
132
out requests. Please note that this function is only available in the
135
memcached_get_by_key() and memcached_mget_by_key() behave in a similar nature
136
as memcached_get() and memcached_mget(). The difference is that they take
137
a master key that is used for determining which server an object was stored
138
if key partitioning was used for storage.
140
All of the above functions are not tested when the \fBMEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_USE_UDP\fPhas been set. Executing any of these functions with this behavior on will result in
141
\fBMEMCACHED_NOT_SUPPORTED\fP being returned, or for those functions which do not return
142
a \fBmemcached_return_t\fP, the error function parameter will be set to
143
\fBMEMCACHED_NOT_SUPPORTED\fP.
146
All objects returned must be freed by the calling application.
147
memcached_get() and memcached_fetch() will return NULL on error. You must
148
look at the value of error to determine what the actual error was.
150
\fBmemcached_fetch_execute()\fP return \fBMEMCACHED_SUCCESS\fP if
151
all keys were successful. \fBMEMCACHED_NOTFOUND\fP will be return if no
152
keys at all were found.
154
\fBmemcached_fetch()\fP and \fBmemcached_fetch_result()\fP set error
155
to \fBMEMCACHED_END\fP upon successful conclusion.
156
\fBMEMCACHED_NOTFOUND\fP will be return if no keys at all were found.
158
MEMCACHED_KEY_TOO_BIG is set to error whenever memcached_fetch() was used
159
and the key was set larger then MEMCACHED_MAX_KEY, which was the largest
160
key allowed for the original memcached ascii server.
