Working with memcached pools

SYNOPSIS

#include <libmemcachedutil-|libmemcachedutil_version|/pool.h>
Compile and link with -lmemcachedutil -lmemcached
.. type:: struct memcached_pool_st memcached_pool_st

.. function:: memcached_pool_st* memcached_pool(const char *option_string, size_t option_string_length)

    :param option_string: :doc:`configuration </libmemcached/configuration>` string
    :param option_string_length: length of `options_string` without any trailing zero byte
    :returns: allocated and initialized `memcached_pool_st` instance on success or nullptr on failure

.. function:: memcached_st* memcached_pool_destroy(memcached_pool_st* pool)

    :param pool: initialized `memcached_pool_st` instance to free
    :returns: pointer to the 'master' `memcached_st` instance by legacy

.. function:: memcached_st* memcached_pool_fetch(memcached_pool_st* pool, struct timespec* relative_time, memcached_return_t* rc)

    .. versionadded:: 0.53
       Synonym for memcached_pool_pop

    :param pool: initialized `memcached_pool_st` instance
    :param relative_time: time to block thread and wait for a connection to become available when pool size is exceeded, unless nullptr
    :param rc: out pointer to `memcached_return_t`
    :returns: pointer to an available `memcached_st` instance

.. function:: memcached_return_t memcached_pool_release(memcached_pool_st* pool, memcached_st* mmc)

    .. versionadded:: 0.53
       Synonym for memcached_pool_push.

    :param pool: initialized `memcached_pool_st` instance
    :param mmc: the `memcached_st` instance to return to the pool
    :returns: `memcached_return_t` indicating success

.. function:: memcached_return_t memcached_pool_behavior_set(memcached_pool_st *pool, memcached_behavior_t flag, uint64_t data)

    :param pool: initialized `memcached_pool_st` instance
    :param flag: the :doc:`behavior </libmemcached/memcached_behavior>` to change
    :param value: the value to set for `flag`
    :returns: `memcached_return_t` indicating success

.. function:: memcached_return_t memcached_pool_behavior_get(memcached_pool_st *pool, memcached_behavior_t flag, uint64_t *value)

    :param pool: initialized `memcached_pool_st` instance
    :param flag: the :doc:`behavior </libmemcached/memcached_behavior>` to read
    :param value: out pointer to receive the set value of `flag`
    :returns: `memcached_return_t` indicating success

.. function:: memcached_pool_st* memcached_pool_create(memcached_st* mmc, int initial, int max)

    .. deprecated:: 0.46
       Use `memcached_pool`

.. function:: memcached_st* memcached_pool_pop(memcached_pool_st* pool, bool block, memcached_return_t *rc)

    .. deprecated:: 0.53
       Use `memcached_pool_fetch`

.. function:: memcached_return_t memcached_pool_push(memcached_pool_st* pool, memcached_st *mmc)

    .. deprecated:: 0.53
       Use `memcached_pool_release`

DESCRIPTION

memcached_pool is used to create a connection pool of objects you may use to remove the overhead of using memcached_clone for short lived memcached_st objects. Please see :doc:`../libmemcached/configuration` for details on the format of the configuration string.

memcached_pool_destroy is used to destroy the connection pool created with memcached_pool_create and release all allocated resources. It will return the pointer to the memcached_st structure passed as an argument to memcached_pool_create, and returns the ownership of the pointer to the caller when created with memcached_pool_create, otherwise NULL is returned..

memcached_pool_fetch is used to fetch a connection structure from the connection pool. The relative_time argument specifies if the function should block and wait for a connection structure to be available if we try to exceed the maximum size. You need to specify time in relative time.

memcached_pool_release is used to return a connection structure back to the pool.

memcached_pool_behavior_get and memcached_pool_behavior_set is used to get/set behavior flags on all connections in the pool.

Both memcached_pool_release and memcached_pool_fetch are thread safe.

RETURN VALUE

memcached_pool_destroy returns the pointer (and ownership) to the memcached_st structure used to create the pool. If connections are in use it returns NULL.

memcached_pool_pop returns a pointer to a memcached_st structure from the pool (or NULL if an allocation cannot be satisfied).

memcached_pool_release returns MEMCACHED_SUCCESS upon success.

memcached_pool_behavior_get and memcached_pool_behavior_get return MEMCACHED_SUCCESS upon success.

memcached_pool_fetch may return MEMCACHED_TIMEOUT if a timeout occurs while waiting for a free memcached_st instance, MEMCACHED_NOTFOUND if no memcached_st instance was available, respectively.

Note

If any method returns MEMCACHED_IN_PROGRESS then a lock on the pool could not be obtained.

If any of the parameters passed to any of these functions is invalid, MEMCACHED_INVALID_ARGUMENTS will be returned.
