.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
-libmemcached(3) can optionally return a memcached_result_st which acts as a
-result object. The result objects have added benefits over the character
-pointer returns, in that they are forward compatible with new return items
-that future memcached servers may implement (the best current example of
-this is the CAS return item). The structures can also be reused, which will
-save on calls to malloc(3). It is suggested that you use result objects over
-char * return functions.

.sp
-memcached_result_create() will either allocate memory for a
-memcached_result_st or will initialize a structure passed to it.
+\fI\%memcached_result_create()\fP will either allocate memory for a
+\fI\%memcached_result_st\fP or will initialize a structure passed to it.
.sp
-memcached_result_free() will deallocate any memory attached to the
+\fI\%memcached_result_free()\fP will deallocate any memory attached to the
structure. If the structure was also allocated, it will deallocate it.
.sp
-memcached_result_key_value() returns the key value associated with the
+\fI\%memcached_result_key_value()\fP returns the key value associated with the
current result object.
.sp
-memcached_result_key_length() returns the key length associated with the
-current result object.
+\fI\%memcached_result_key_length()\fP returns the key length associated with
+the current result object.
.sp
-memcached_result_value() returns the result value associated with the
+\fI\%memcached_result_value()\fP returns the result value associated with the
current result object.
.sp
-memcached_result_length() returns the result length associated with the
-current result object.
+\fI\%memcached_result_length()\fP returns the result length associated with
+the current result object.
.sp
-memcached_result_flags() returns the flags associated with the
+\fI\%memcached_result_flags()\fP returns the flags associated with the
current result object.
.sp
-memcached_result_cas() returns the cas associated with the
+\fI\%memcached_result_cas()\fP returns the cas associated with the
current result object. This value will only be available if the server
tests it.
.sp
-memcached_result_set_value() takes a byte array and a size and sets
+\fI\%memcached_result_set_value()\fP takes a byte array and a size and sets
the result to this value. This function is used for trigger responses.
.sp
-void memcached_result_set_flags() takes a result structure and stores
-a new value for the flags field.
+\fI\%memcached_result_set_flags()\fP takes a result structure and stores a new
+value for the flags field.
.sp
-void memcached_result_set_expiration(A) takes a result structure and stores
+\fI\%memcached_result_set_expiration()\fP takes a result structure and stores
a new value for the expiration field (this is only used by read through
triggers).

.SH RETURN
.sp
Varies, see particular functions. All structures must have
-memcached_result_free() called on them for cleanup purposes. Failure to
-do this will result in leaked memory.
