Open memcached server persistent connection

Memcache::pconnect

memcache_pconnect

(PECL memcache >= 0.4.0)

Memcache::pconnect -- memcache_pconnect — Open memcached server persistent connection

Description

Memcache::pconnect(string $host, int $port = ?, int $timeout = ?): bool

Memcache::pconnect(string $host, int $port = ?, int $timeout = ?): Memcache

Memcache::pconnect() is similar to Memcache::connect() with the difference, that the connection it establishes is persistent. This connection is not closed after the end of script execution and by Memcache::close() function.

Parameters

host: Point to the host where memcached is listening for connections. This parameter may also specify other transports like unix:///path/to/memcached.sock to use UNIX domain sockets, in this case port must also be set to 0.
port: Point to the port where memcached is listening for connections. Set this parameter to 0 when using UNIX domain sockets.
timeout: Value in seconds which will be used for connecting to the daemon. Think twice before changing the default value of 1 second - you can lose all the advantages of caching if your connection is too slow.

Return Values

Returns a Memcache object or false on failure.
