62 libmemcached(3) has the ability to query a memcached server (or collection
63 of servers) for their current state. Queries to find state return a
64 \fBmemcached_stat_st\fP structure. You are responsible for freeing this structure. While it is possible to access the structure directly it is not advisable. \fBmemcached_stat_get_value()\fP has been provided to query the structure.
66 \fBmemcached_stat_execute()\fP uses the servers found in \fBmemcached_stat_st\fP and executes a "stat" command on each server. args is an optional argument that can be passed in to modify the behavior of "stats". You will need to supply a callback function that will be supplied each pair of values returned by
69 \fBmemcached_stat()\fP fetches an array of \fBmemcached_stat_st\fP structures containing the state of all available memcached servers. The return value must be freed by the calling application. If called with the \fBMEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_USE_UDP\fP behavior set, a NULL value is returned and the error parameter is set to \fBMEMCACHED_NOT_SUPPORTED\fP.
71 \fBmemcached_stat_servername()\fP can be used standalone without a \fBmemcached_st\fP to obtain the state of a particular server. "args" is used to define a particular state object (a list of these are not provided for by either
72 the \fBmemcached_stat_get_keys()\fP call nor are they defined in the memcached protocol). You must specify the hostname and port of the server you want to
73 obtain information on.
75 \fBmemcached_stat_get_value()\fP returns the value of a particular state key. You specify the key you wish to obtain. The key must be null terminated.
77 \fBmemcached_stat_get_keys()\fP returns a list of keys that the server has state objects on. You are responsible for freeing this list.
79 A command line tool, memstat(1), is provided so that you do not have to write
80 an application to do this.
83 Varies, see particular functions.
85 Any method returning a \fBmemcached_stat_st\fP expects you to free the
86 memory allocated for it.
