Compile and link with \-lmemcached
48
Libmemcached implements a custom language for configuring and modifying
49
servers. By passing in an option string you can generate a \fBmemcached_st\fP object
50
that you can use in your application directly.
53
.B \-\-SERVER=<servername>:<optional_port>/?<optional_weight>
56
Provide a servername to be used by the client. Providing a weight will cause weighting to occur with all hosts with each server getting a default weight of 1.
59
.B \-\-SOCKET=<filepath>/?<optional_weight>
62
Provide a filepath to a UNIX socket file. Providing a weight will cause weighting to occur with all hosts with each server getting a default weight of 1.
68
Verify that keys that are being used fit within the design of the protocol being used.
71
.B \-\-REMOVE_FAILED_SERVERS
74
Enable the behavior MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_REMOVE_FAILED_SERVERS.
77
.B \-\-BINARY\-PROTOCOL
80
Force all connections to use the binary protocol.
83
.B \-\-BUFFER\-REQUESTS
86
Enable MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_BUFFER_REQUESTS.
89
.B \-\-CONFIGURE\-FILE=
92
Provide a configuration file to be used to load requests. Beware that by using a configuration file libmemcached will reset memcached_st based on information only contained in the file.
95
.B \-\-CONNECT\-TIMEOUT=
98
Enable MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_CONNECT_TIMEOUT.
104
Set the distribution model used by the client. See :manpage:\(ga\(ga for more details.
110
Set the hashing alogrthm used for placing keys on servers.
113
.B \-\-HASH\-WITH\-NAMESPACE
116
When enabled the prefix key will be added to the key when determining which
117
server to store the data in.
123
Enable "no reply" for all calls that support this. It is highly recommended
124
that you use this option with the binary protocol only.
127
.B \-\-NUMBER\-OF\-REPLICAS=
130
Set the nummber of servers that keys will be replicated to.
133
.B \-\-RANDOMIZE\-REPLICA\-READ
136
Select randomly the server within the replication pool to read from.
142
When adding new servers always calculate their distribution based on sorted naming order.
148
See \fImemcached_behavior_set(3)\fP for MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_SUPPORT_CAS
154
See \fImemcached_behavior_set(3)\fP for MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_USE_UDP
160
A namespace is a container that provides context for keys, only other
161
requests that know the namespace can access these values. This is
162
accomplished by prepending the namespace value to all keys.
163
.SS Mecached Pool Options:
169
Initial size of pool.
175
Maximize size of the pool.
182

185
.B \-\-TCP\-KEEPALIVE
188

191
.B \-\-RETRY\-TIMEOUT=
194
See \fImemcached_behavior_set(3)\fP for MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_RETRY_TIMEOUT
197
.B \-\-SERVER\-FAILURE\-LIMIT=
200
See \fImemcached_behavior_set(3)\fP for MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_SERVER_FAILURE_LIMIT
206
See \fImemcached_behavior_set(3)\fP for MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_SND_TIMEOUT

212
See \fImemcached_behavior_set(3)\fP for MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_SOCKET_RECV_SIZE
215
.B \-\-SOCKET\-SEND\-SIZE=
218
See \fImemcached_behavior_set(3)\fP for MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_SOCKET_SEND_SIZE
221
.B \-\-POLL\-TIMEOUT=
224
That sets the value of the timeout used by :manpage: \fIpoll()\fP.
227
.B \-\-IO\-BYTES\-WATERMARK=
231
.B \-\-IO\-KEY\-PREFETCH=
235
.B \-\-IO\-MSG\-WATERMARK=
251
Include a file in configuration. Unlike \-\-CONFIGURE\-FILE= this will not reset memcached_st
257
Reset memcached_st and continue to process.
263
End configutation processing.
269
End configutation processing and throw an error.
272
\fI\%memcached()\fP returns a pointer to the memcached_st that was
273
created (or initialized). On an allocation failure, it returns NULL.
278
const char *config_string= "\-\-SERVER=host10.example.com \-\-SERVER=host11.example.com \-\-SERVER=host10.example.com"
279
memcached_st *memc= memcached(config_string, strlen(config_string);
283
memcached_free(memc);
