GEARMAN_CLIENT_ECHO(3)

💖 GEARMAN_CLIENT_ECHO 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the gearmand manual, section 3 (that's the libgearman / library section, iykyk). this one's short and sweet, so let's go ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

gearman_client_echo — official Gearmand Documentation, and if you wanna be extra, the whole vibe lives at <http://gearman.info/> 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

first, you gotta invite the header in:

#include <libgearman/gearman.h>

then here's the actual main characters:

gearman_return_t <#c.gearman_return_t>
gearman_client_echo(gearman_client_st <#c.gearman_client_st> *client,
const void *workload, size_t <#c.size_t> workload_size)

gearman_return_t <#c.gearman_return_t>
gearman_worker_echo(gearman_worker_st <#c.gearman_worker_st> *worker,
const void *workload, size_t <#c.size_t> workload_size)

like, yes, there's two functions. client one and worker one. iconic behavior, they're basically twins 💅

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

so gearman_client_echo() and gearman_worker_echo() both send a message to a gearmand server. then the server literally just responds with the message that it sent. that's it. that's the whole thing. ✨

it's giving pure test energy honestly — these commands are just for testing the connection to the servers that were configured for the gearman_client_st <#c.gearman_client_st> and the gearman_worker_st <#c.gearman_worker_st> that were used. no cap, it's a vibe check for your connection 🫶

---

💜 RETURN VALUE 💜

gearman_return_t <#c.gearman_return_t>

(yeah babes, that's the return type. it hands you back a gearman_return_t and you deal with it accordingly 💅)
