Example #1 apcu_cas() example
<?php
apcu_store('foobar', 2);
echo '$foobar = 2', PHP_EOL;
echo '$foobar == 1 ? 2 : 1 = ', (apcu_cas('foobar', 1, 2) ? 'ok' : 'fail'), PHP_EOL;
echo '$foobar == 2 ? 1 : 2 = ', (apcu_cas('foobar', 2, 1) ? 'ok' : 'fail'), PHP_EOL;
echo '$foobar = ', apcu_fetch('foobar'), PHP_EOL;
echo '$f__bar == 1 ? 2 : 1 = ', (apcu_cas('f__bar', 1, 2) ? 'ok' : 'fail'), PHP_EOL;
apcu_store('perfection', 'xyz');
echo '$perfection == 2 ? 1 : 2 = ', (apcu_cas('perfection', 2, 1) ? 'ok' : 'epic fail'), PHP_EOL;
echo '$foobar = ', apcu_fetch('foobar'), PHP_EOL;
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
$foobar = 2 $foobar == 1 ? 2 : 1 = fail $foobar == 2 ? 1 : 2 = ok $foobar = 1 $f__bar == 1 ? 2 : 1 = fail $perfection == 2 ? 1 : 2 = epic fail $foobar = 1
