(PECL memcached >= 0.1.0)

Memcached::flush — Invalidate all items in the cache

### Description

public bool Memcached::flush ([ int `$delay` = 0 ] )

Memcached::flush() invalidates all existing cache items immediately (by default) or after the `delay` specified. After invalidation none of the items will be returned in response to a retrieval command (unless it's stored again under the same key after Memcached::flush() has invalidated the items). The flush does not actually free all the memory taken up by the existing items; that will happen gradually as new items are stored.

### Parameters

`delay`

  Number of seconds to wait before invalidating the items.

### Return Values

Returns `TRUE` on success or `FALSE` on failure. Use Memcached::getResultCode() if necessary.

### Examples

Example #1 Memcached::flush() example

`<?php
$m = new Memcached();
$m->addServer('localhost', 11211);
/* flush all items in 10 seconds */
$m->flush(10);
?>`
