=====================
NAME
----
zmq_socket_monitor - monitor socket events
SYNOPSIS
--------
*int zmq_socket_monitor (void '*socket', char '*endpoint', int 'events');*
DESCRIPTION
-----------
The _zmq_socket_monitor()_ method lets an application thread track
socket events (like connects) on a ZeroMQ socket. Each call to this
method creates a 'ZMQ_PAIR' socket and binds that to the specified
inproc:// 'endpoint'. To collect the socket events, you must create
your own 'ZMQ_PAIR' socket, and connect that to the endpoint.
The 'events' argument is a bitmask of the socket events you wish to
monitor, see 'Supported events' below. To monitor all events, use the
event value ZMQ_EVENT_ALL.
Each event is sent as two frames. The first frame contains an event
number (16 bits), and an event value (32 bits) that provides additional
data according to the event number. The second frame contains a string
that specifies the affected TCP or IPC endpoint.
----
The _zmq_socket_monitor()_ method supports only connection-oriented
transports, that is, TCP, IPC, and TIPC.

Supported events
----------------
ZMQ_EVENT_CONNECTED
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The socket has successfully connected to a remote peer. The event value
is the file descriptor (FD) of the underlying network socket. Warning:
there is no guarantee that the FD is still valid by the time your code
receives this event.
ZMQ_EVENT_CONNECT_DELAYED
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A connect request on the socket is pending. The event value is unspecified.
ZMQ_EVENT_CONNECT_RETRIED
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A connect request failed, and is now being retried. The event value is the
reconnect interval in milliseconds. Note that the reconnect interval is
recalculated at each retry.
ZMQ_EVENT_LISTENING
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The socket was successfully bound to a network interface. The event value
is the FD of the underlying network socket. Warning: there is no guarantee
that the FD is still valid by the time your code receives this event.
ZMQ_EVENT_BIND_FAILED
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The socket could not bind to a given interface. The event value is the
errno generated by the system bind call.
ZMQ_EVENT_ACCEPTED
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The socket has accepted a connection from a remote peer. The event value is
the FD of the underlying network socket. Warning: there is no guarantee that
the FD is still valid by the time your code receives this event.
ZMQ_EVENT_ACCEPT_FAILED
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The socket has rejected a connection from a remote peer. The event value is
the errno generated by the accept call.
ZMQ_EVENT_CLOSED
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The socket was closed. The event value is the FD of the (now closed) network
socket.
ZMQ_EVENT_CLOSE_FAILED
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The socket close failed. The event value is the errno returned by the system
call. Note that this event occurs only on IPC transports.
ZMQ_EVENT_DISCONNECTED
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The socket was disconnected unexpectedly. The event value is the FD of the
underlying network socket. Warning: this socket will be closed.
ZMQ_EVENT_MONITOR_STOPPED
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Monitoring on this socket ended.
RETURN VALUE
------------
The _zmq_socket_monitor()_ function returns a value of 0 or greater if
successful. Otherwise it returns `-1` and sets 'errno' to one of the values
defined below.
ERRORS
------
*ETERM*::
The 0MQ 'context' associated with the specified 'socket' was terminated.
*EPROTONOSUPPORT*::
The requested 'transport' protocol is not supported. Monitor sockets are
required to use the inproc:// transport.
*EINVAL*::
The endpoint supplied is invalid.
