(PECL apcu >= 4.0.0)
apcu_store — Cache a variable in the data store
Description
apcu_store ( string $key , mixed $var [, int $ttl = 0 ] ) : bool
apcu_store ( array $values [, mixed $unused = NULL [, int $ttl = 0 ]] ) : array
Cache a variable in the data store.
Note: Unlike many other mechanisms in PHP, variables stored using apcu_store() will persist between requests (until the value is removed from the cache).
Parameters
-
key
-
Store the variable using this name.
key
s are cache-unique, so storing a second value with the samekey
will overwrite the original value. -
var
-
The variable to store
-
ttl
-
Time To Live; store
var
in the cache forttl
seconds. After thettl
has passed, the stored variable will be expunged from the cache (on the next request). If nottl
is supplied (or if thettl
is0
), the value will persist until it is removed from the cache manually, or otherwise fails to exist in the cache (clear, restart, etc.). -
values
-
Names in key, variables in value.
Return Values
Returns true
on success or false
on failure. Second syntax returns array with error keys.
Examples
