You must pass in a key and its length to fetch the object. You must supply three pointer variables which will give you the state of the returned object. A \fBuint32_t\fP pointer to contain whatever flags you stored with the value, a \fBsize_t\fP pointer which will be filled with size of of the object, and a \fBmemcached_return_t\fP pointer to hold any error. The object will be returned upon success and NULL will be returned on failure. \fBMEMCACHED_END\fP is returned by the *error value when all objects that have been found are returned. The final value upon \fBMEMCACHED_END\fP is null. .sp Values returned by \fI\%memcached_fetch()\fP must be freed by the caller. .sp All of the above functions are not tested when the \fBMEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_USE_UDP\fP has been set. Executing any of these functions with this behavior on will result in \fBMEMCACHED_NOT_SUPPORTED\fP being returned, or for those functions which do not return a \fBmemcached_return_t\fP, the error function parameter will be set to \fBMEMCACHED_NOT_SUPPORTED\fP\&. .SH RETURN .sp \fI\%memcached_fetch()\fP sets error to to \fBMEMCACHED_END\fP upon successful conclusion. \fBMEMCACHED_NOTFOUND\fP will be return if no keys at all were found. .sp \fBMEMCACHED_KEY_TOO_BIG\fP is set to error whenever \fI\%memcached_fetch()\fP was used and the key was set larger then \fBMEMCACHED_MAX_KEY\fP, which was the largest key allowed for the original memcached ascii server. .SH HOME .sp To find out more information please check: \fI\%http://libmemcached.org/\fP .SH SEE ALSO .sp \fImemcached(1)\fP \fIlibmemcached(3)\fP \fImemcached_strerror(3)\fP \fImemcached_fetch_result(3)\fP .SH AUTHOR Brian Aker .SH COPYRIGHT 2011-2013, Brian Aker DataDifferential, http://datadifferential.com/ .\" Generated by docutils manpage writer. .
