NAME
memcached_delete - libmemcached Documentation
SYNOPSIS
#include <libmemcached/memcached.h>
memcached_return_t memcached_delete(memcached_st *ptr, const char *key,
size_t key_length, time_t expiration)
memcached_return_t memcached_delete_by_key(memcached_st *ptr, const
char *group_key, size_t group_key_length, const char *key,
size_t key_length, time_t expiration)
Compile and link with -lmemcached
DESCRIPTION
memcached_delete() is used to delete a particular key.
memcached_delete_by_key() works the same, but it takes a master key to
find the given value.
Expiration works by placing the item into a delete queue, which means
that it won't be possible to retrieve it by the "get" command. The
"add" and "replace" commands with this key will also fail (the "set"
command will succeed, however). After the time passes, the item is
finally deleted from server memory.
Please note the the Danga memcached server removed tests for expiration
in the 1.4 version.
RETURN
A value of type memcached_return_t is returned On success that value
will be MEMCACHED_SUCCESS. Use memcached_strerror() to translate this
value to a printable string.
If you are using the non-blocking mode of the library, success only
means that the message was queued for delivery.
