  56 .SH DESCRIPTION
  57 .sp
  58 memcached_create() is used to create a \fBmemcached_st\fP structure that will then
  59 be used by other libmemcached(3) functions to communicate with the server. You
  60 should either pass a statically declared \fBmemcached_st\fP to memcached_create() or
  61 a NULL. If a NULL passed in then a structure is allocated for you.
  62 .sp
  63 memcached_clone() is similar to memcached_create(3) but it copies the
  64 defaults and list of servers from the source \fBmemcached_st\fP. If you pass a null as
  65 the argument for the source to clone, it is the same as a call to memcached_create().
  66 If the destination argument is NULL a \fBmemcached_st\fP will be allocated for you.
  67 .sp
  68 memcached_servers_reset() allows you to zero out the list of servers that
  69 the memcached_st has.
  70 .sp
  71 To clean up memory associated with a \fBmemcached_st\fP structure you should pass
  72 it to memcached_free() when you are finished using it. memcached_free() is
  73 the only way to make sure all memory is deallocated when you finish using
  74 the structure.
  75 .sp
  76 You may wish to avoid using memcached_create(3) or memcached_clone(3) with a
  77 stack based allocation. The most common issues related to ABI safety involve
  78 heap allocated structures.
  79 .SH RETURN
  80 .sp
  81 memcached_create() returns a pointer to the memcached_st that was created
  82 (or initialized). On an allocation failure, it returns NULL.
  83 .sp
  84 memcached_clone() returns a pointer to the memcached_st that was created
  85 (or initialized). On an allocation failure, it returns NULL.
