DESCRIPTION

       memcached_generate_hash_value() allows you to hash a key using one of
       the hash functions defined in the library. This method is provided for
       the convenience of higher-level language bindings and is not necessary
       for normal memcache operations.

       The allowed hash algorithm constants are listed in the manpage for
       memcached_behavior_set().

       memcached_generate_hash() takes a memcached_st struture and produces
       the hash value that would have been generated based on the defaults of
       memcached_st.

       As of version 0.36 all hash methods have been placed into the library
       libhashkit(3) which is linked with libmemcached(3). For more
       information please see its documentation.


RETURN

       A 32-bit integer which is the result of hashing the given key.  For
       64-bit hash algorithms, only the least-significant 32 bits are
       returned.
