24 -----------
25
26
27 :c:func::`memcached_flush` is used to wipe clean the contents of :program:`memcached` servers.
28 It will either do this immediately or expire the content based on the
29 expiration time passed to the method (a value of zero causes an immediate
30 flush). The operation is not atomic to multiple servers, just atomic to a
31 single server. That is, it will flush the servers in the order that they were
32 added.

41 On success that value will be :c:type:`MEMCACHED_SUCCESS`.
42 Use :c:type:`memcached_strerror` to translate this value to a printable string.
