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 <#_CPPv412memcached_st> *ptr, memcached_stat_st <#_CPPv417memcached_stat_st> *stat, memcached_return_t <#_CPPv418memcached_return_t> *error)
Parameters
  • ptr -- pointer to initialized memcached_st <#_CPPv412memcached_st> struct
  • stat -- pointer to a memcached_stat_st <#_CPPv417memcached_stat_st> struct to fill
  • error -- pointer to memcached_return_t <#_CPPv418memcached_return_t> indicating success
Returns

pointer to an allocated and filled out memcached_analysis_t struct

Description

libmemcached has the ability to query a memcached server (or collection of servers) for their current state. Queries to find state return a memcached_analysis_st structure. You are responsible for freeing this structure.

memcached_analyze() analyzes useful information based on the provided servers and sets the result to the memcached_analysis_st structure. The return value must be freed by the calling application.

See also:

memstat -a|--analyze [<arg>] A command line tool to analyze a memcached server.

Return Value

A pointer to the allocated memcached_analysis_st structure on success and a NULL pointer on failure. You may inspect the error detail by checking the memcached_return_t <#_CPPv418memcached_return_t> value.

Any method returning a memcached_analysis_st expects you to free the memory allocated for it.
