Memcache::decrement -- Decrement item's value
Description
int
Memcache::decrement ( string key [, int value])
Memcache::decrement() decrements value of the
item by value. Similarly to
Memcache::increment(), current value of the item is
being converted to numerical and after that value
is substracted.
Parameter value is optional. It's default is 1.
Nota:
New item's value will not be less than zero.
Nota:
Do not use Memcache::decrement() with item, which was
stored compressed, because consequent call to
Memcache::get() will fail.
Also you can use memcache_decrement() function.
See example below.
Ejemplo 1. Memcache::decrement() example
<?php
/* procedural API */
$memcache_obj = memcache_connect('memcache_host', 11211);
/* decrement item by 2 */
$new_value = memcache_decrement($memcache_obj, 'test_item', 2);
/* OO API */
$memcache_obj = new Memcache;
$memcache_obj->connect('memcache_host', 11211);
/* decrement item by 3 */
$new_value = $memcache_obj->decrement('test_item', 3);
?>

Memcache::decrement() does not
create an item if it didn't exist.
Memcache::decrement() returns item's new value on
success or FALSE on failure.
