Documentation and "Touch is not supported for ASCII protocol"

[mdaley]

Hi,

In the documentation at http://clojurememcached.info/articles/getting_started.html it talks about using the touch function with a text-connection. However, when I do this I get the exception "Touch is not supported for ASCII protocol" from the underlying spymemcached Java library. Is the documentation wrong in this case? I've tried this with the latest spyglass 1.1.0 and also with the latest spymemcached 2.12.0.

I haven't been following SpyMemcached and we had switch away from using the most recent version because it had obscure authentication bugs but I suspect there may be limitations.

Thanks for the reply. I found this problem with the version of spymemcached that is referenced by the current version of spyglass and when swapping out that version of spymemcached to use the most up-to-date one. i.e. the problem exists in the current 1.1.0 version of spyglass. I'll try it with version 1.0.x as well when I get a spare moment.
