Optionally pass the success or fail boolean value to this referenced variable.
ttl
TTL to use if the operation inserts a new value (rather than decrementing an existing one).
Return Values
Returns the current value of
key
's value on success, or
false
on failure
Examples
Example #1
apcu_dec()
example
<?phpecho"Let's do something with success",PHP_EOL;apcu_store('anumber',42);echoapcu_fetch('anumber'),PHP_EOL;echoapcu_dec('anumber'),PHP_EOL;echoapcu_dec('anumber',10),PHP_EOL;echoapcu_dec('anumber',10,$success),PHP_EOL;var_dump($success);echo"Now, let's fail",PHP_EOL,PHP_EOL;apcu_store('astring','foo');$ret=apcu_dec('astring',1,$fail);var_dump($ret);var_dump($fail);?>
The above example will output something similar to:
Let's do something with success
42
41
31
21
bool(true)
Now, let's fail
bool(false)
bool(false)

apcu_delete
—
Removes a stored variable from the cache
Description
apcu_delete(mixed$key):mixed
Removes a stored variable from the cache.
Parameters
key
A
key
used to store the value as a
string
for a single key, or as an
array
of strings for several keys, or as an
APCUIterator
object
.
Return Values
If
key
is an
array
, an indexed
array
of the keys is returned. Otherwise
true
is returned on success, or
false
on failure.
Examples
Example #1 A
apcu_delete()
example
<?php$bar='BAR';apcu_store('foo',$bar);apcu_delete('foo');// this is obviously useless in this form// Alternatively delete multiple keys.apcu_delete(['foo','bar','baz']);// Or use an Iterator with a regular expression.apcu_delete(newAPCUIterator('#^myprefix_#'));?>

apcu_store() - Cache a variable in the data store
apcu_fetch() - Fetch a stored variable from the cache
Atomically attempts to find
key
in the cache, if it cannot be found
generator
is called, passing
key
as the only argument. The return value of the call is then cached with the optionally specified
ttl
, and returned.
Note
:
When control enters
apcu_entry()
the lock for the cache is acquired exclusively, it is released when control leaves
apcu_entry()
: In effect, this turns the body of
generator
into a critical section, disallowing two processes from executing the same code paths concurrently. In addition, it prohibits the concurrent execution of any other APCu functions, since they will acquire the same lock.
Warning
The only APCu function that can be called safely by
generator
is
apcu_entry()
.
Parameters
key
Identity of cache entry
generator
A callable that accepts
key
as the only argument and returns the value to cache.
ttl
Time To Live; store
var
in the cache for
ttl
seconds. After the
ttl
has passed, the stored variable will be expunged from the cache (on the next request). If no
ttl
is supplied (or if the
ttl
is
0
), the value will persist until it is removed from the cache manually, or otherwise fails to exist in the cache (clear, restart, etc.).
A
string
, or an
array
of strings, that contain keys.
Return Values
Returns
true
if the key exists, otherwise
false
Or if an
array
was passed to
keys
, then an array is returned that contains all existing keys, or an empty array if none exist.
Examples
Example #1
apcu_exists()
example
<?php$fruit='apple';$veggie='carrot';apcu_store('foo',$fruit);apcu_store('bar',$veggie);if(apcu_exists('foo')){echo"Foo exists: ";echoapcu_fetch('foo');}else{echo"Foo does not exist";}echoPHP_EOL;if(apcu_exists('baz')){echo"Baz exists.";}else{echo"Baz does not exist";}echoPHP_EOL;$ret=apcu_exists(array('foo','donotexist','bar'));var_dump($ret);?>
The above example will output something similar to:
Foo exists: apple
Baz does not exist
array(2) {
["foo"]=>
bool(true)
["bar"]=>
bool(true)
}
