37 libmemcached(3) operates on a list of hosts which are stored in
38 :c:type:`memcached_server_st` structures. You should not modify these structures
39 directly. Functions are provided to modify these structures (and more can be
42 :c:func:`memcached_server_list()` is used to provide an array of all defined hosts. This was incorrectly documented as "requiring free()" up till version 0.39.
44 :c:func:`memcached_server_list_free()` deallocates all memory associated with the array of :c:type:`memcached_server_st` that you passed to it.
46 :c:func:`memcached_server_list_append()` adds a server to the end of a
47 :c:type:`memcached_server_st` array. On error null will be returned and the
48 :c:type:`memcached_return_t` pointer you passed into the function will be set with the appropriate error. If the value of port is zero, it is set to the default
49 port of a memcached server.
51 DEPRECATED :c:func:`memcached_servers_parse()`, please see :manpage:`memcached(3)`
53 :c:func:`memcached_server_error()` can be used to look at the text of the last error message sent by the server to to the client.
55 Before version 0.39 theses functions used a memcache_server_st \*. In 0.39
56 memcached_server_st \* was aliased to :c:type:`memcached_server_list_st`. This was done for a style reason to help clean up some concepts in the code.
