29 :program:`libmemcached` has the ability to query a memcached server (or
30 collection of servers) for their current state. Queries to find state return a
31 :c:type:`memcached_analysis_st` structure. You are responsible for freeing this structure.
33 :c:func:`memcached_analyze` analyzes useful information based on the
34 provided servers and sets the result to the :c:type:`memcached_analysis_st`
35 structure. The return value must be freed by the calling application.
37 A command line tool, :program:`memstat` with the option :option:`memstat --analyze`,
38 is provided so that you do not have to write an application to use this method.
46 A pointer to the allocated :c:type:`memcached_analysis_st` structure on
47 success and a NULL pointer on failure. You may inspect the error detail by
48 checking the :c:type:`memcached_return_t` value.
50 Any method returning a :c:type:`memcached_analysis_st` expects you to free the
51 memory allocated for it.
