MEMCACHED_L...ROR_MESSAGE(3)

💖 MEMCACHED_L...ROR_MESSAGE(3) 💖

okay bestie, so this one's from libmemcached-awesome, and it's literally the manual page about asking your memcached object "hey girl, what just happened??" 😭✨ Three little functions, one big vibe: pulling the last error code, the last error message, and the last errno(3). Let's get into it. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

memcached_last_error_message — libmemcached Documentation 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <libmemcached/memcached.h>

Compile and link with -lmemcached 🔥

memcached_return_t memcached_last_error(const memcached_st *ptr)

Parameters

• ptr — pointer to an initialized memcached_st struct 🎀

Returns

• memcached_return_t indicating success of last operation 👑

const char *memcached_last_error_message(const memcached_st *ptr)

Parameters

• ptr — pointer to an initialized memcached_st struct 🎀

Returns

• message describing the status of last operation 💌

int memcached_last_error_errno(const memcached_st *ptr)

Parameters

• ptr — pointer to an initialized memcached_st struct 🎀

Returns

• errno(3) (if any) of last operation 🙈

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Retrieve error codes and messages. That's the whole assignment bestie. Like, you had a moment, something went sideways, and now you need the receipts. This is where you get them. 📝✨

---

💀 RETURN VALUE 💀

• memcached_last_error() — returns the last error code. simple as that, no cap. 🔥
• memcached_last_error_message() — returns the last error message. and here's the tea 🍵: if this error came from a specific server, its hostname and port will be provided in the error message. Any error message will be returned as 'const char *' which does not need to be de-allocated — so don't you dare free() it, bestie, that's not its journey. 🚫 NULL will be returned if no error has occurred. 🎉
• memcached_last_error_errno() — returns any last local error code obtained from errno(3). 👀
