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.
Also you can use memcache_pconnect() 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 TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
Examples
Example #1 Memcache::pconnect() example
<?php
/* procedural API */ $memcache_obj = memcache_pconnect('memcache_host', 11211);
/* OO API */
$memcache_obj = new Memcache; $memcache_obj->pconnect('memcache_host', 11211);
