215 still the same in the server. You can get the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">cas</span></code> value of a result by
216 calling <a class="reference internal" href="memcached_result_st.html#_CPPv420memcached_result_casPK19memcached_result_st" title="memcached_result_cas"><code class="xref cpp cpp-any docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">memcached_result_cas()</span></code></a> on a <a class="reference internal" href="memcached_result_st.html#_CPPv419memcached_result_st" title="memcached_result_st"><code class="xref cpp cpp-any docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">memcached_result_st</span></code></a> structure.</p>
217 <p>At the point that this note was written cas is still buggy in memcached. Turning
218 on tests for it in <code class="xref cpp cpp-any docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">libmemcached</span></code> is optional. Please see <a class="reference internal" href="memcached_set.html#_CPPv413memcached_setP12memcached_stPKc6size_tPKc6size_t6time_t8uint32_t" title="memcached_set"><code class="xref cpp cpp-any docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">memcached_set()</span></code></a> for
219 information on how to do this.</p>

221 The difference is that it uses the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">group_key</span></code> parameter to map objects to
222 particular servers.</p>
223 <p><a class="reference internal" href="#_CPPv413memcached_casP12memcached_stPKc6size_tPKc6size_t6time_t8uint32_t8uint64_t" title="memcached_cas"><code class="xref cpp cpp-any docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">memcached_cas()</span></code></a> is tested with the <code class="xref cpp cpp-any docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_USE_UDP</span></code> behavior
224 enabled. However, when using these operations with this behavior on, there are
225 limits to the size of the payload being sent to the server. The reason for
226 these limits is that the Memcached Server does not allow multi-datagram requests
227 and the current server implementation sets a datagram size to 1400 bytes. Due to
228 protocol overhead, the actual limit of the user supplied data is less than 1400
229 bytes and depends on the protocol in use as, well as the operation being
230 executed. When running with the binary protocol,
231 <code class="xref cpp cpp-any docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_BINARY_PROTOCOL</span></code>, the size of the key,value, flags and
232 expiry combined may not exceed 1368 bytes. When running with the ASCII protocol,
233 the exact limit fluctuates depending on which function is being executed and
234 whether the function is a cas operation or not. For non-cas ASCII set
235 operations, there are at least 1335 bytes available to split among the key,
236 key_prefix, and value; for cas ASCII operations there are at least 1318 bytes
237 available to split among the key, key_prefix and value. If the total size of the
238 command, including overhead, exceeds 1400 bytes, a <a class="reference internal" href="memcached_return_t.html#_CPPv4N18memcached_return_t23MEMCACHED_WRITE_FAILUREE" title="MEMCACHED_WRITE_FAILURE"><code class="xref cpp cpp-any docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">MEMCACHED_WRITE_FAILURE</span></code></a>
