Get Data Using Java Application

To get data from a Memcached server, you need to use the Memcached get method.

Example

import net.spy.memcached.MemcachedClient;
public class MemcachedJava {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      // Connecting to Memcached server on localhost
      MemcachedClient mcc = new MemcachedClient(new
      InetSocketAddress("127.0.0.1", 11211));
      System.out.println("Connection to server sucessfully");
      System.out.println("set status:"+mcc.set("tutorialspoint", 900, "memcached").done);
     
     // Get value from cache
      System.out.println("Get from Cache:"+mcc.get("tutorialspoint"));
   }
}
