LIX. Memcache Functions

简介

Memcache module provides handy procedural and object oriented interface to memcached, highly effective caching daemon, which was especially designed to decrease database load in dynamic web applications.

More information about memcached can be found at http://www.danga.com/memcached/.

需求

This module uses functions of zlib to support on-the-fly data compression. Zlib is required to install this module.

PHP 4.3.3 or newer is required to use memcache extension.

安装

Memcache is currently available through PECL http://pecl.php.net/package/memcache.

Also you can use the pear installer to install the memcache extension, using the following command: pear -v install memcache.

You can always download the tar.gz package and install memcache by hand:
例子 1. Memcache installation
gunzip memcache-xxx.tgz tar -xvf memcache-xxx.tar cd memcache-xxx phpize ./configure && make && make install

Windows users can download the extension dll php_memcache.dll here: http://snaps.php.net/win32/PECL_STABLE/.

资源类型

There is only one resource type used in memcache module - it's the link identifier for a cache server connection.

预定义常量

MEMCACHE_COMPRESSED (integer): Used to turn on-the-fly data compression on with Memcache::set(), Memcache::add() and Memcache::replace().

例

例子 2. memcache extension overview example
<?php $memcache = new Memcache; $memcache->connect('localhost', 11211) or die ("Could not connect"); $version = $memcache->getVersion(); echo "Server's version: ".$version."<br/>\n"; $tmp_object = new stdClass; $tmp_object->str_attr = 'test'; $tmp_object->int_attr = 123; $memcache->set('key', $tmp_object, 10) or die ("Failed to save data at the server"); echo "Store data in the cache (data will expire in 10 seconds)<br/>\n"; $get_result = $memcache->get('key'); echo "Data from the cache:<br/>\n"; var_dump($get_result); ?>

In the above example, an object is being saved in the cache and then retrieved back. Object and other non-scalar types are serialized before saving, so it's impossible to store resources (i.e. connection identifiers and others) in the cache.
