# Memcached::casByKey

(PECL memcached >= 0.1.0)

Memcached::casByKey — Compare and swap an item on a specific server

### Description

public bool Memcached::casByKey ( float `$cas_token` , string `$server_key` , string `$key` , mixed `$value` [, int `$expiration` ] )

Memcached::casByKey() is functionally equivalent to Memcached::cas(), except that the free-form `server_key` can be used to map the `key` to a specific server. This is useful if you need to keep a bunch of related keys on a certain server.

### Parameters

`cas_token`

  Unique value associated with the existing item. Generated by memcache.

`server_key`

  The key identifying the server to store the value on or retrieve it from. Instead of hashing on the actual key for the item, we hash on the server key when deciding which memcached server to talk to. This allows related items to be grouped together on a single server for efficiency with multi operations.

`key`

  The key under which to store the value.

`value`

  The value to store.

`expiration`

  The expiration time, defaults to 0. See Expiration Times for more info.

### Return Values

Returns `TRUE` on success or `FALSE` on failure. The Memcached::getResultCode() will return `Memcached::RES_DATA_EXISTS` if the item you are trying to store has been modified since you last fetched it.
