9 =head1 SYNOPSIS
10
11 #include <memcached.h>
12
13 memcached_analysis_st *
14 memcached_analyze (memcached_st *ptr,
15 memcached_stat_st *stat,
16 memcached_return_t *error);

18 =head1 DESCRIPTION
19
20 libmemcached(3) has the ability to query a memcached server (or collection
21 of servers) for their current state. Queries to find state return a
22 C<memcached_analysis_st> structure. You are responsible for freeing this structure.
23
24 memcached_analyze() analyzes useful information based on the provided servers
25 and sets the result to the C<memcached_analysis_st> structure. The return value
26 must be freed by the calling application.
27
28 A command line tool, memstat(1) with the option --analyze, is provided so that
29 you do not have to write an application to use this method.
30
31 =head1 RETURN
32
33 A pointer to the allocated C<memcached_analysis_st> structure on success and
34 a NULL pointer on failure. You may inspect the error detail by checking the
35 C<memcached_return_t> value.
36
37 Any method returning a C<memcached_analysis_st> expects you to free the
38 memory allocated for it.
