    Memcached::delete

    (PECL memcached >= 0.1.0)

    Memcached::delete — Delete an item

    Description

    public Memcached::delete(string $key, int $time = 0): bool

    Delete the key from the server.

    Parameters

    key

    The key to be deleted.

    time

    The amount of time the server will wait to delete the item.

    Note: As of memcached 1.3.0 (released 2009) this feature is no longer supported. Passing a non-zero time will cause the deletion to fail. Memcached::getResultCode() will return MEMCACHED_INVALID_ARGUMENTS.

    Return Values

    Returns true on success or false on failure. The Memcached::getResultCode() will return Memcached::RES_NOTFOUND if the key does not exist.

    Examples

    Example #1 Memcached::delete() example

    <?php
    $m     = new Memcached();
    $m->addServer('localhost', 11211);

    $m->delete('key1');
    ?>

    --For PECL memcached 2.10--
    delete used with second argument 'time' returns false and set the error code and message for invalid arguments unless used without Memcached::OPT_BINARY_PROTOCOL.

    getResultCode() and getResultMessage() returns  38 and INVALID ARGUMENTS respectively.
