-memcached_pool() is used to create a connection pool of objects you may use
-to remove the overhead of using memcached_clone for short lived
-\ ``memcached_st``\ objects. Please see :manpage:`libmemcached_configuration` for details on the format of the configuration string.

-DEPRECATED memcached_pool_create() is used to create a connection pool of
-objects you may use to remove the overhead of using memcached_clone for
-short lived \ ``memcached_st``\ objects. The mmc argument should be an
-initialised \ ``memcached_st``\ structure, and a successfull invocation of
-memcached_pool_create takes full ownership of the variable (until it is
-released by memcached_pool_destroy). The \ ``initial``\ argument specifies
-the initial size of the connection pool, and the \ ``max``\ argument
-specifies the maximum size the connection pool should grow to. Please note
-that the library will allocate a fixed size buffer scaled to the max size of
-the connection pool, so you should not pass MAXINT or some other large
-number here.
-
-memcached_pool_destroy() is used to destroy the connection pool
-created with memcached_pool_create() and release all allocated
-resources. It will return the pointer to the \ ``memcached_st``\ structure
-passed as an argument to memcached_pool_create(), and returns the ownership
-of the pointer to the caller when created with memcached_pool_create,
-otherwise NULL is returned..

RETURN
------
+:c:func:`memcached_pool_destroy()` returns the pointer (and ownership) to the :c:type:`memcached_st` structure used to create the pool. If connections are in use it returns NULL.
-memcached_pool_create() returns a pointer to the newly created
-memcached_pool_st structure. On an allocation failure, it returns
-NULL.
-
-memcached_pool_destroy() returns the pointer (and ownership) to the
-memcached_st structure used to create the pool. If connections are in
-use it returns NULL.
-
-memcached_pool_pop() returns a pointer to a memcached_st structure
-from the pool (or NULL if an allocation cannot be satisfied).
+:c:func:`memcached_pool_pop()` returns a pointer to a :c:type:`memcached_st` structure from the pool (or NULL if an allocation cannot be satisfied).
-memcached_pool_push() returns MEMCACHED_SUCCESS upon success.
+:c:func:`memcached_pool_push()` returns :c:type:`MEMCACHED_SUCCESS` upon success.
-memcached_pool_behavior_get() and memcached_pool_behavior_get()
-returns MEMCACHED_SUCCESS upon success.
+:c:func:`memcached_pool_behavior_get()` and :c:func:`memcached_pool_behavior_get()` returns :c:type:`MEMCACHED_SUCCESS` upon success.
