Memcache::increment — Increment item's value
Description
int Memcache::increment
( string $key
[, int $value = 1
] )
Memcache::increment() increments value of an item by the specified value. If item specified by key was not numeric and cannot be converted to a number, it will change its value to value. Memcache::increment() does not create an item if it doesn't already exist.
Also you can use memcache_increment() function.Note:
Do not use Memcache::increment() with items that have been stored compressed because subsequent calls to Memcache::get() will fail.
Parameters
- key
-
Key of the item to increment.
- value
-
Increment the item by value.
Return Values
Returns new items value on success or FALSE on failure.
