NAME¶
memcached_delete_by_key - libmemcached Documentation
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <libmemcached/memcached.h>
- memcached_return_t memcached_delete(memcached_st *ptr,
const char *key, size_t key_length,
time_t expiration)
- memcached_return_t
memcached_delete_by_key(memcached_st *ptr, const char
*group_key, size_t group_key_length, const
char *key, size_t key_length,
time_t expiration)
Compile and link with -lmemcached
DESCRIPTION¶
memcached_delete() is used to delete a particular key.
memcached_delete_by_key() works the same, but it takes a master key to
find the given value.
Expiration works by placing the item into a delete queue, which means that it
won't be possible to retrieve it by the "get" command. The
"add" and "replace" commands with this key will also fail
(the "set" command will succeed, however). After the time passes,
the item is finally deleted from server memory.
Please note the the Danga memcached server removed tests for expiration in the
1.4 version.
RETURN¶
A value of type
memcached_return_t is returned On success that value will
be
MEMCACHED_SUCCESS. Use
memcached_strerror() to translate this
value to a printable string.
If you are using the non-blocking mode of the library, success only means that
the message was queued for delivery.
