(PECL memcache >= 0.4.0)

Memcache::pconnect — Open memcached server persistent connection

### Description

bool Memcache::pconnect ( string `$host` [, int `$port` [, int `$timeout` ]] )

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);
?>`
