.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
\fI\%memcached_create()\fP is used to create a \fI\%memcached_st\fP
structure that will then be used by other libmemcached(3) functions to
communicate with the server. You should either pass a statically declared
\fI\%memcached_st\fP to \fI\%memcached_create()\fP or
a NULL. If a NULL passed in then a structure is allocated for you.
.sp
Please note, when you write new application use
\fBmemcached()\fP over \fI\%memcached_create()\fP.
.sp
\fI\%memcached_clone()\fP is similar to \fI\%memcached_create()\fP but
it copies the defaults and list of servers from the source
\fI\%memcached_st\fP. If you pass a null as the argument for the source
to clone, it is the same as a call to \fI\%memcached_create()\fP.
If the destination argument is NULL a \fI\%memcached_st\fP will be allocated
for you.
.sp
\fI\%memcached_servers_reset()\fP allows you to zero out the list of
servers that the \fI\%memcached_st\fP has.
.sp
To clean up memory associated with a \fI\%memcached_st\fP structure you
should pass it to \fI\%memcached_free()\fP when you are finished using it.
\fI\%memcached_free()\fP is the only way to make sure all memory is
deallocated when you finish using the structure.
.sp
You may wish to avoid using memcached_create(3) or memcached_clone(3) with a
stack based allocation. The most common issues related to ABI safety involve
heap allocated structures.
.SH RETURN
.sp
\fI\%memcached_create()\fP returns a pointer to the \fI\%memcached_st\fP
that was created (or initialized). On an allocation failure, it returns NULL.
.sp
\fI\%memcached_clone()\fP returns a pointer to the \fI\%memcached_st\fP
that was created (or initialized). On an allocation failure, it returns NULL.
