  92 .SH DESCRIPTION
  93 .sp
  94 \fI\%memcached_generate_hash_value()\fP allows you to hash a key using one of
  95 the hash functions defined in the library. This method is provided for
  96 the convenience of higher\-level language bindings and is not necessary
  97 for normal memcache operations.
  98 .sp
  99 The allowed hash algorithm constants are listed in the manpage for
 100 \fBmemcached_behavior_set()\fP.
 101 .sp
 102 \fI\%memcached_generate_hash()\fP takes a \fBmemcached_st\fP struture
 103 and produces the hash value that would have been generated based on the
 104 defaults of \fBmemcached_st\fP.
 105 .sp
 106 As of version 0.36 all hash methods have been placed into the library
 107 libhashkit(3) which is linked with libmemcached(3). For more information please see its documentation.
 108 .SH RETURN
 109 .sp
 110 A 32\-bit integer which is the result of hashing the given key.
 111 For 64\-bit hash algorithms, only the least\-significant 32 bits are
 112 returned.
