💖 MEMCACHED_ANALYZE(3) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the libmemcached-awesome girlies' guide to memcached_analyze — this one's from the libmemcached docs and it's lowkey a whole vibe. let's get into it 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

memcached_analyze — it's giving "libmemcached Documentation", and it's here to read your memcached servers' whole aura 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <libmemcached/memcached.h>
       Compile and link with -lmemcached

typedef struct memcached_analysis_st memcached_analysis_st

memcached_analysis_st *memcached_analyze(memcached_st *ptr,
memcached_stat_st *stat, memcached_return_t *error)

🎀 Parameters

  • ptr — pointer to initialized memcached_st struct 👑
  • stat — pointer to a memcached_stat_st struct to fill 🍓
  • error — pointer to memcached_return_t indicating success ✨

🦋 Returns

pointer to an allocated and filled out memcached_analysis_t struct — periodt 💖

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so, libmemcached has the ability to query a memcached server (or like, a whole collection of servers, main character energy) for their current state. and when you go looking for that state, you get back a memcached_analysis_st structure. important bestie: you are responsible for freeing this structure, no one else is gonna do it for you 😭

memcached_analyze() analyzes useful information based on the provided servers and sets the result into the memcached_analysis_st structure. and yeah — the return value must be freed by the calling application. not optional, fr fr 🙈

SEE ALSO: memstat -a|--analyze [<arg>] — A command line tool to analyze a memcached server. iconic 🎀

💅 RETURN VALUE 💅

on success you get a pointer to the allocated memcached_analysis_st structure. on failure you get a NULL pointer 😭 you may inspect the error detail by checking the memcached_return_t value — that's your vibe check, bestie.

any method returning a memcached_analysis_st expects you to free the memory allocated for it. every single time. no cap. 🔥

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

that's the whole page, bestie — go forth and analyze slayfully 💖✨🦋
