Memcached::set
Store an item
Description
public bool Memcached::set(string $key, mixed $value, int $expiration = 0)
The value can be any valid PHP type except for resources, because those
cannot be represented in a serialized form. If the
Memcached::OPT_COMPRESSION option is turned on, the
serialized value will also be compressed before storage.
Parameters
-
key
-
The key under which to store the value.
-
value
-
The value to store.
-
expiration
-
The expiration time, defaults to 0. See Expiration Times for more info.
Return Values
Returns true on success or false on failure.
Use Memcached::getResultCode if necessary.
Examples
Example #1 Memcached::set example
<?php
$m = new Memcached();
$m->addServer('localhost', 11211);
$m->set('int', 99);
$m->set('string', 'a simple string');
$m->set('array', array(11, 12));
/* expire 'object' key in 5 minutes */
$m->set('object', new stdClass, time() + 300);
var_dump($m->get('int'));
var_dump($m->get('string'));
var_dump($m->get('array'));
var_dump($m->get('object'));
?>
The above example will output
something similar to:
int(99)
string(15) "a simple string"
array(2) {
[0]=>
int(11)
[1]=>
int(12)
}
object(stdClass)#1 (0) {
}
