memcache simple practice in Java

Memcache is C/S structure, server is not supported on windows offical, but we can find one windows server here

install
here is the install guide on windows:
The win32 version of memcached can be run both as a NT Service or from the command line. To install memcached as a service, follow the next steps:

Unzip the binaries in your desired directory (eg. c:\memcached)
Install the service using the command: 'c:\memcached\memcached.exe -d install' from the command line
Start the server from the Microsoft Management Console or by running the following command: 'c:\memcached\memcached.exe -d start'
Use the server, by default listening to port 11211

Java client
Many clients are available for diferent lauguage, and more than one in java.
Here use memcache-java-client, which is more generic.alisoft is annother good choice.
maven dependency for Memcached-Java-Client.

    <dependency>
    	<groupId>com.whalin</groupId>
    	<artifactId>Memcached-Java-Client</artifactId>
    	<version>3.0.0</version>
    </dependency>

here's my demo code

package com.lingceng.MemcacheDemo;

import com.whalin.MemCached.MemCachedClient;
import com.whalin.MemCached.SockIOPool;


public class MyClass {

	// create a static client as most installs only need
	// a single instance
	protected static MemCachedClient mcc = new MemCachedClient();

	// set up connection pool once at class load
	static {

		// server list and weights
		String[] servers =
			{
			 // "server1.mydomain.com:1624",
			 // "server2.mydomain.com:1624",
			  "127.0.0.1:11211"
			};

		//Integer[] weights = { 3, 3, 2 };

		// grab an instance of our connection pool
		SockIOPool pool = SockIOPool.getInstance();

		// set the servers and the weights
		pool.setServers( servers );
		//pool.setWeights( weights );

		// set some basic pool settings
		// 5 initial, 5 min, and 250 max conns
		// and set the max idle time for a conn
		// to 6 hours
		pool.setInitConn( 5 );
		pool.setMinConn( 5 );
		pool.setMaxConn( 250 );
		pool.setMaxIdle( 1000 * 60 * 60 * 6 );

		// set the sleep for the maint thread
		// it will wake up every x seconds and
		// maintain the pool size
		pool.setMaintSleep( 30 );

		// set some TCP settings
		// disable nagle
		// set the read timeout to 3 secs
		// and don't set a connect timeout
		pool.setNagle( false );
		pool.setSocketTO( 3000 );
		pool.setSocketConnectTO( 0 );

		// initialize the connection pool
		pool.initialize();


		// lets set some compression on for the client
		// compress anything larger than 64k
		//mcc.setCompressEnable( true );
		//mcc.setCompressThreshold( 64 * 1024 );
	}

	// from here on down, you can call any of the client calls
	public static void main(String[] args) {
        mcc.set( "foo", "This is a test String" );
		String bar = (String) mcc.get( "foo" );
		System.out.println(bar);
	}
}
