67 Compile and link with \-lmemcached
70 libmemcached(3) allows you to specify your own memory allocators, optimized
71 for your application. This enables libmemcached to be used inside of applications that have their own malloc implementation.
73 \fBmemcached_set_memory_allocators()\fP is used to set the memory
74 allocators used by the memcached instance specified by ptr. Please note that
75 you cannot override only one of the memory allocators, you have to specify a
76 complete new set if you want to override one of them. All of the memory
77 allocation functions should behave as specified in the C99 standard. Specify
78 NULL as all functions to reset them to the default values.
80 \fBmemcached_get_memory_allocators()\fP is used to get the currently used
81 memory allocators by a mamcached handle.
83 \fBmemcached_get_memory_allocators_context()\fP returns the void * that
84 was passed in during the call to \fBmemcached_set_memory_allocators()\fP.
86 The first argument to the memory allocator functions is a pointer to a
87 memcached structure, the is passed as const and you will need to clone
88 it in order to make use of any operation which would modify it.
91 In version 0.38 all functions were modified to have a context void pointer
92 passed to them. This was so that customer allocators could have their
96 \fBmemcached_set_memory_allocators()\fP return \fBMEMCACHED_SUCCESS\fP
97 upon success, and \fBMEMCACHED_FAILURE\fP if you don\(aqt pass a complete set
