zmq_bind(3)
===========
NAME
----
zmq_bind - binds the socket to the specified address
SYNOPSIS
--------
'int zmq_bind (void *s, const char *addr);'
DESCRIPTION
-----------
The function binds socket 's' to a particular transport. Actual semantics of the
command depend on the underlying transport mechanism, however, in cases where
peers connect in an asymmetric manner, 'zmq_bind' should be called first,
'zmq_connect' afterwards. Actual formats of 'addr' parameter are defined by
individual transports. For a list of supported transports have a look at
linkzmq:zmq[7] manual page.
Note that single socket can be bound (and connected) to
arbitrary number of peers using different transport mechanisms.
RETURN VALUE
------------
In case of success the function returns zero. Otherwise it returns -1 and
sets 'errno' to the appropriate value.
ERRORS
------
*EPROTONOSUPPORT*::
unsupported protocol.
*ENOCOMPATPROTO*::
protocol is not compatible with the socket type.
*EADDRINUSE*::
the given address is already in use.
*EADDRNOTAVAIL*::
a nonexistent interface was requested or the requested address was not local.
EXAMPLE
-------
----
void *s = zmq_socket (context, ZMQ_PUB);
assert (s);
int rc = zmq_bind (s, "inproc://my_publisher");
assert (rc == 0);
rc = zmq_bind (s, "tcp://eth0:5555");

zmq_close(3)
============
NAME
----
zmq_close - destroys 0MQ socket
SYNOPSIS
--------
'int zmq_close (void *s);'
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Destroys 0MQ socket (one created using
'zmq_socket' function). All sockets have to be properly closed before the
application terminates, otherwise memory leaks will occur. Note that any
outbound messages that haven't been psuhed to the network yet and any inbound
messages that haven't been received by the application yet will be dropped on
the socket shutdown.
RETURN VALUE
------------
In case of success the function returns zero. Otherwise it returns -1 and
sets 'errno' to the appropriate value.
ERRORS
------
No errors are defined.

-----------
The function connect socket 's' to the peer identified by 'addr'. Actual
semantics of the command depend on the underlying transport mechanism,
however, in cases where peers connect in an asymmetric manner, 'zmq_bind'
should be called first, 'zmq_connect' afterwards. Formats of the 'addr'
parameter are defined by individual transports. For a list of supported

zmq_cpp(7)
==========
NAME
----
zmq_cpp - interface between 0MQ and C++ applications
SYNOPSIS
--------
This manual page explains how C++ API maps to underlying C API. To learn about
individual functions and parameters check appropriate C API manual
pages.
For example, to understand 'zmq::socket_t::setsockopt' function check
linkzmq:zmq_setsockopt[3].
All 0MQ constants defined with C API are available with C++ API.
zmq::context_t
--------------
This class encapsulates the functions dealing with initialisation and
termination of 0MQ context. Constructor of the class invokes
linkzmq:zmq_init[3] while destructor calls linkzmq:zmq_term[3].
zmq::socket_t
-------------
This class encapsulates all the functions to deal with 0MQ sockets. Constructor
calls linkzmq:zmq_socket[3], destructor calls linkzmq:zmq_close[3]. Other
functions of the class are mapped to C functions with corresponding names.
'zmq::socket_t::bind' calls linkzmq:zmq_bind[3] etc.
zmq::message_t
--------------
This class encapsulates 'zmq_msg_t' structure and all the C functions that deal
with 0MQ messages. Constructors of the class invoke corresponding
initialisation functions linkzmq:zmq_msg_init[3], linkzmq:zmq_msg_init_size[3]
and linkzmq:zmq_msg_init_data[3], while destructor invokes
linkzmq:zmq_msg_close[3] function.
Remaining functions are mapped to C functions with corresponding names.
For instance, 'zmq::message_t::copy' is mapped to linkzmq:zmq_msg_copy[3]
etc.
C++ provides an additional function not available with C API.
'zmq::message_t::rebuild' is equivalent to calling linkzmq:zmq_close[3]
followed by linkzmq:zmq_msg_init[3], linkzmq:zmq_msg_init_size[3] or
linkzmq:zmq_msg_init_data[3]. It provides a way to reuse existing
'zmq::message_t' instances to store different message content.
zmq::error_t
------------
All the errors reported using 'errno' mechanism in C API are automatically
converted to exceptions in C++ API. 'zmq::error_t' is derived from
'std::exception' and uses linkzmq:zmq_strerror[3] function to convert the error
code to human-readable string.
zmq::poll
---------
'zmq::poll' function is a namespaced equivalent of raw C linkzmq:zmq_poll[3]
function.
EXAMPLE
-------
----
zmq::context_t ctx (1, 1);
zmq::socket_t s (ctx, ZMQ_PUB);
s.connect ("tcp://192.168.0.115:5555");
zmq::message_t msg (100);
memset (msg.data (), 0, 100);
s.send (msg);

zmq_flush(3)
============
NAME
----
zmq_flush - flushes pre-sent messages to the socket
SYNOPSIS
--------
'int zmq_flush (void *s);'
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Flushes all the pre-sent messages - i.e. those that have been sent with
ZMQ_NOFLUSH flag - to the socket. This functionality improves performance in
cases where several messages are sent during a single business operation.
It should not be used as a transaction - ACID properties are not guaranteed.
Note that calling
.IR zmq_send
without ZMQ_NOFLUSH flag automatically flushes all previously pre-sent messages.
.SH RETURN VALUE
Note that calling 'zmq_send' without ZMQ_NOFLUSH flag automatically flushes all
previously pre-sent messages.
RETURN VALUE
------------
In case of success the function returns zero. Otherwise it returns -1 and

===========
NAME
----
zmq_init - initialises 0MQ context
SYNOPSIS
--------
'void *zmq_init (int app_threads, int io_threads, int flags);'
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Initialises 0MQ context. 'app_threads' specifies maximal number of application
threads that can own open sockets at the same time. At least one application
thread should be defined. 'io_threads' specifies the size of thread pool to
handle I/O operations. The value shouldn't be negative. Zero can be used in
case only in-process messaging is going to be used, i.e. there will be no I/O
traffic.
The 'flags' argument is a combination of the flags defined below:
*ZMQ_POLL*::
flag specifying that the sockets within this context should be pollable
(see linkzmq:zmq_poll[3]). Pollable sockets may add a little latency to the
message transfer when compared to non-pollable sockets.
RETURN VALUE
------------
Function returns context handle is successful. Otherwise it returns NULL and
sets errno to one of the values below.
ERRORS
------
*EINVAL*::
there's less than one application thread allocated, or number of I/O
threads is negative.

zmq_inproc - 0MQ transport to pass messages between threads
SYNOPSIS
--------
In-process transport is optimised for passing messages between threads in the

Messages are passed directly from one application thread to
another application thread. There are no intervening I/O threads involved.
Thus, if you are using 0MQ for in-process messaging only, you can initialise

zmq_msg_close(3)
================
NAME
----
zmq_msg_close - destroys 0MQ message
SYNOPSIS
--------
'int zmq_msg_close (zmq_msg_t *msg);'
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Deallocates message 'msg' including any associated buffers (unless the buffer
is shared with another message). Not calling this function can result in
memory leaks.
RETURN VALUE
------------
In case of success the function returns zero. Otherwise it returns -1 and sets
'errno' to the appropriate value.
ERRORS
------
No errors are defined.
EXAMPLE
-------
----
zmq_msg_t msg;
rc = zmq_msg_init_size (&msg, 1000000);
assert (rc = 0);
rc = zmq_msg_close (&msg);

zmq_msg_copy(3)
===============
NAME
----
zmq_msg_copy - copies content of a message to another message
SYNOPSIS
--------
'int zmq_msg_copy (zmq_msg_t *dest, zmq_msg_t *src);'
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Copy the 'src' message to 'dest'. The original content of
'dest' is orderly deallocated.
CAUTION: The implementation may choose not to physically copy the data, rather
to share the buffer between two messages. Thus avoid modifying message data
after the message was copied. Doing so can modify multiple message instances.
If what you need is actual hard copy, allocate new message using
'zmq_msg_size' and copy the data using 'memcpy'.
RETURN VALUE
------------
In case of success the function returns zero. Otherwise it returns -1 and
sets 'errno' to the appropriate value.
ERRORS
------
No errors are defined.
EXAMPLE
-------
----
zmq_msg_t dest;
rc = zmq_msg_init (&dest);

'typedef void (zmq_free_fn) (void *data, void *hint);'
'int zmq_msg_init_data (zmq_msg_t *msg, void *data, size_t size, zmq_free_fn *ffn, void *hint);'
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Initialise a message from a supplied buffer. Message isn't copied,
instead 0MQ infrastructure takes ownership of the buffer located at address
'data', 'size' bytes long. Deallocation function ('ffn') will be called once
the data are not needed anymore. When using a static constant buffer, 'ffn' may
be NULL to prevent subsequent deallocation. If needed, additional 'hint' can be
passed to the initialisation function. It's an opaque pointer that will be
later on passed to 'ffn' as a second argument.
RETURN VALUE
------------
In case of success the function returns zero. Otherwise it returns -1 and
sets 'errno' to the appropriate value.
ERRORS
------
No errors are defined.
EXAMPLE
-------
----
void my_free (void *data, void *hint) {free (data);}

NAME
----
zmq_msg_init_size - initialises 0MQ message of a specified size
SYNOPSIS
--------
'int zmq_msg_init_size (zmq_msg_t *msg, size_t size);'
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Initialises 0MQ message 'size' bytes long. The implementation chooses whether
it is more efficient to store message content on the stack (small messages) or
on the heap (large messages). Therefore, never access message data directly
via 'zmq_msg_t' members, rather use 'zmq_msg_data' and 'zmq_msg_size' functions
to get message data and size. Note that the message data are not nullified to
avoid the associated performance impact. Thus you should expect your message to
contain bogus data after this call.
RETURN VALUE
------------
In case of success the function returns zero. Otherwise it returns -1 and
sets 'errno' to the appropriate value.
ERRORS
------
*ENOMEM*::
memory to hold the message cannot be allocated.
EXAMPLE

.SH CONNECTION STRING
CONNECTION STRING
-----------------
Connection string for PGM transport is "pgm://" followed by an IP address
of the NIC to use, semicolon, IP address of the multicast group, colon and
port number. IP address of the NIC can be either its numeric representation
or the name of the NIC as reported by operating system. IP address of the
multicast group should be specified in the numeric representation. For example:

Note that NIC names are not standardised by POSIX. They tend to be rather
arbitrary and platform dependent. Say, "eth0" on Linux would correspond to "en0"
on OSX and "e1000g" on Solaris. On Windows platform, as there are no short NIC
names available, you have to use numeric IP addresses instead.

zmq_poll(3)
===========
NAME
----
zmq_poll - polls for events on a set of 0MQ and POSIX sockets
SYNOPSIS
--------
'int zmq_poll (zmq_pollitem_t *items, int nitems, long timeout);'
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Waits for the events specified by 'items' parameter. Number of items in the
array is determined by 'nitems' argument. Each item in the array looks like
this:
----
typedef struct
{
void *socket;
int fd;
short events;
short revents;
} zmq_pollitem_t;
----
0MQ socket to poll on is specified by 'socket'. In case you want to poll on
standard POSIX socket, set 'socket' to NULL and fill the POSIX file descriptor
to 'fd'. 'events' specifies which events to wait for. It's a combination of
the values below. Once the call exits, 'revents' will be filled with events
that have actually occured on the socket. The field will contain a combination
of the values below.
*ZMQ_POLLIN*::
poll for incoming messages.
*ZMQ_POLLOUT*::
wait while message can be set socket. Poll will return if a message of at least
one byte can be written to the socket. However, there is no guarantee that
arbitrarily large message can be sent.
'timeout' argument specifies an upper limit on the time for which 'zmq_poll'
will block, in microseconds. Specifying a negative value in timeout means an
infinite timeout.
RETURN VALUE
------------
Function returns number of items signaled or -1 in the case of error.
ERRORS
------
*EFAULT*::
there's a 0MQ socket in the pollset belonging to a different application thread.
*ENOTSUP*::
0MQ context was initialised without ZMQ_POLL flag. I/O multiplexing is disabled.

items [0].socket = s;
items [0].events = ZMQ_POLLIN;
items [1].socket = NULL;

The flag specifies that the operation should be performed in non-blocking mode.
I.e. if it cannot be processed immediately, error should be returned with

*ZMQ_NOFLUSH*::
The flag specifies that 'zmq_send' should not flush the message downstream
immediately. Instead, it should batch ZMQ_NOFLUSH messages and send them
downstream only once 'zmq_flush' is invoked. This is an optimisation for cases
where several messages are sent in a single business transaction. However, the
effect is measurable only in extremely high-perf scenarios (million messages a
second or so). If that's not your case, use standard flushing send instead.

Type: string Unit: N/A Default: N/A
.IP "\fBZMQ_UNSUBSCRIBE\fP"
*ZMQ_UNSUBSCRIBE*::
Applicable only to ZMQ_SUB socket type. Removes existing message filter.
The filter specified must match the string passed to ZMQ_SUBSCRIBE options
exactly. If there were several instances of the same filter created,
this options removes only one of them, leaving the rest in place
and functional.
+
Type: string Unit: N/A Default: N/A
.IP "\fBZMQ_RATE\fP"
*ZMQ_RATE*::
This option applies only to sending side of multicast transports (pgm & udp).
It specifies maximal outgoing data rate that an individual sender socket
can send.

Type: uint64_t Unit: kilobits/second Default: 100
.IP "\fBZMQ_RECOVERY_IVL\fP"
*ZMQ_RECOVERY_IVL*::
This option applies only to multicast transports (pgm & udp). It specifies
how long can the receiver socket survive when the sender is inaccessible.
Keep in mind that large recovery intervals at high data rates result in
very large recovery buffers, meaning that you can easily overload your box
by setting say 1 minute recovery interval at 1Gb/s rate (requires
7GB in-memory buffer).
+
Type: uint64_t Unit: seconds Default: 10
.IP "\fBZMQ_MCAST_LOOP\fP"
*ZMQ_MCAST_LOOP*::
This option applies only to multicast transports (pgm & udp). Value of 1
means that the mutlicast packets can be received on the box they were sent
from. Setting the value to 0 disables the loopback functionality which
can have negative impact on the performance. If possible, disable
the loopback in production environments.
+
Type: uint64_t Unit: N/A (boolean value) Default: 1
.IP "\fBZMQ_SNDBUF\fP"
*ZMQ_SNDBUF*::
Sets the underlying kernel transmit buffer size to the specified size. See
.IR SO_SNDBUF
POSIX socket option. Value of zero means leaving the OS default unchanged.
'SO_SNDBUF' POSIX socket option. Value of zero means leaving the OS default
unchanged.

RETURN VALUE
------------
In case of success the function returns zero. Otherwise it returns -1 and
sets

zmq_socket(3)
=============
NAME
----
zmq_socket - creates 0MQ socket
SYNOPSIS
--------
'void *zmq_socket (void *context, int type);'
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Open a socket within the specified 'context'. To create a context, use
'zmq_init' function. 'type' argument can be one of the values defined below.
Note that each socket is owned by exactly one thread (the one that it was
created from) and should not be used from any other thread.
*ZMQ_P2P*::
Socket to communicate with a single peer. Allows for only a single connect
or a single bind. There's no message routing or message filtering involved.
+
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_P2P.
*ZMQ_PUB*::
Socket to distribute data. Recv function is not implemented for this socket
type. Messages are distributed in fanout fashion to all the peers.
+
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_SUB.
*ZMQ_SUB*::
Socket to subscribe for data. Send function is not implemented for this socket
type. Initially, socket is subscribed for no messages. Use ZMQ_SUBSCRIBE option
to specify which messages to subscribe for.
+
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_PUB.
*ZMQ_REQ*::
Socket to send requests and receive replies. Requests are load-balanced among
all the peers. This socket type allows only an alternated sequence of send's
and recv's.
+
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_REP, ZMQ_XREP.
*ZMQ_REP*::
Socket to receive requests and send replies. This socket type allows only an
alternated sequence of recv's and send's. Each send is routed to the peer that
issued the last received request.
+
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_REQ, ZMQ_XREQ.
*ZMQ_XREQ*::
Special socket type to be used in request/reply middleboxes such as
linkzmq:zmq_queue[7]. Requests forwarded using this socket type should be
tagged by a proper prefix identifying the original requester. Replies received
by this socket are tagged with a proper postfix that can be use to route the
reply back to the original requester.
+
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_REP, ZMQ_XREP.
*ZMQ_XREP*::
Special socket type to be used in request/reply middleboxes such as
linkzmq:zmq_queue[7]. Requests received using this socket are already properly
tagged with prefix identifying the original requester. When sending a reply via
XREP socket the message should be tagged with a prefix from a corresponding
request.
+
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_REQ, ZMQ_XREQ.
*ZMQ_UPSTREAM*::
Socket to receive messages from up the stream. Messages are fair-queued from
among all the connected peers. Send function is not implemented for this socket
type.
+
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_DOWNSTREAM.
*ZMQ_DOWNSTREAM*::
Socket to send messages down stream. Messages are load-balanced among all the
connected peers. Recv function is not implemented for this socket type.
+
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_UPSTREAM.
RETURN VALUE
------------
Function returns socket handle is successful. Otherwise it returns NULL and
sets errno to one of the values below.
ERRORS
------
*EINVAL*::
invalid socket type.
*EMTHREAD*::
the number of application threads allowed to own 0MQ sockets was exceeded.
See 'app_threads' parameter to 'zmq_init' function.
EXAMPLE
-------
----
void *s = zmq_socket (context, ZMQ_PUB);
assert (s);
int rc = zmq_bind (s, "tcp://192.168.0.1:5555");
assert (rc == 0);

zmq_strerror(3)
===============
NAME
----
zmq_strerror - returns string describing the error number
SYNOPSIS
--------
'const char *zmq_strerror (int errnum);'
DESCRIPTION
-----------
As 0MQ defines few additional (non-POSIX) error codes, standard
'strerror' isn't capable of translating those errors into human readable
strings. Instead, 'zmq_strerror' should be used.
RETURN VALUE
------------
Returns string describing the error number.
ERRORS
------
No errors are defined.
EXAMPLE
-------
----
void *ctx = zmq_init (1, 1, 0);
if (!ctx) {
printf ("error occured during zmq_init: %s\\n", zmq_strerror (errno));
abort ();

-----------------
Connection string for TCP transport is "tcp://" followed by an IP address,

Note that NIC names are not standardised by POSIX. They tend to be rather
arbitrary and platform dependent. Say, "eth0" on Linux would correspond to "en0"
on OSX and "e1000g" on Solaris. On Windows platform, as there are no short NIC
names available, you have to use numeric IP addresses instead.

.TH zmq_bind 3 "" "(c)2007-2010 iMatix Corporation" "0MQ User Manuals"
.SH NAME
zmq_bind \- binds the socket to the specified address
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B int zmq_bind (void *s, const char *addr);
.SH DESCRIPTION
The function binds socket
.IR s
to a particular transport. Actual semantics of the
command depend on the underlying transport mechanism, however, in cases where
peers connect in an asymmetric manner,
.IR zmq_bind
should be called first,
.IR zmq_connect
afterwards. Actual formats of
.IR addr
parameter are defined by individual transports. For a list of supported
transports have a look at
.IR zmq(7)
manual page.
Note that single socket can be bound (and connected) to
arbitrary number of peers using different transport mechanisms.
.SH RETURN VALUE
In case of success the function returns zero. Otherwise it returns -1 and
sets
.IR errno
to the appropriate value.
.SH ERRORS
.IP "\fBEPROTONOSUPPORT\fP"
unsupported protocol.
.IP "\fBENOCOMPATPROTO\fP"
protocol is not compatible with the socket type.
.IP "\fBEADDRINUSE\fP"

.SH SYNOPSIS
.B void *zmq_init (int app_threads, int io_threads, int flags);
.SH DESCRIPTION
Initialises 0MQ context.
.IR app_threads
specifies maximal number of application threads that can own open sockets
at the same time. At least one application thread should be defined.
.IR io_threads
specifies the size of thread pool to handle I/O operations. The value shouldn't
be negative. Zero can be used in case only in-process messaging is going to be
used, i.e. there will be no I/O traffic.
.IR flags
argument is a combination of the flags defined below:
.IP "\fBZMQ_POLL\fP"
flag specifying that the sockets within this context should be pollable (see
.IR zmq_poll
). Pollable sockets may add a little latency to the message transfer when
compared to non-pollable sockets.
.SH RETURN VALUE
Function returns context handle is successful. Otherwise it returns NULL and
sets errno to one of the values below.
.SH ERRORS
.IP "\fBEINVAL\fP"
there's less than one application thread allocated, or number of I/O threads
is negative.

.SH DESCRIPTION
Copy the

is orderly deallocated.
Caution: The implementation may choose not to physically copy the data, rather
to share the buffer between two messages. Thus avoid modifying message data
after the message was copied. Doing so can modify multiple message instances.
If what you need is actual hard copy, allocate new message using
.IR zmq_msg_size

.SH SYNOPSIS
.B int zmq_msg_init_size (zmq_msg_t *msg, size_t size);
.SH DESCRIPTION
Initialises 0MQ message

.SH SYNOPSIS
.B int zmq_poll (zmq_pollitem_t *items, int nitems, long timeout);
.SH DESCRIPTION
Waits for the events specified by

0MQ socket to poll on is specified by
.IR socket .
In case you want to poll on standard POSIX socket, set
.IR socket
to NULL and fill the POSIX file descriptor to
.IR fd .
.IR events
specifies which events to wait for. It's a combination of the values below.
Once the call exits,
.IR revent
will be filled with events that have actually occured on the socket. The field
will contain a combination of the values below.
.IP "\fBZMQ_POLLIN\fP"
poll for incoming messages.
.IP "\fBZMQ_POLLOUT\fP"
wait while message can be set socket. Poll will return if a message of at least
one byte can be written to the socket. However, there is no guarantee that
arbitrarily large message can be sent.
.IR timeout
argument specifies an upper limit on the time for which
.IR zmq_poll
will block, in microseconds. Specifying a negative value in timeout means
an infinite timeout.
.SH RETURN VALUE
Function returns number of items signaled or -1 in the case of error.
.SH ERRORS
.IP "\fBEFAULT\fP"
there's a 0MQ socket in the pollset belonging to a different application thread.

.SH DESCRIPTION
Send the message

.IR s .
.IR flags
argument can be combination the flags described below.
.IP "\fBZMQ_NOBLOCK\fP"
The flag specifies that the operation should be performed in
non-blocking mode. I.e. if it cannot be processed immediately,
error should be returned with
.IR errno
set to EAGAIN.
.IP "\fBZMQ_NOFLUSH\fP"
The flag specifies that
.IR zmq_send
should not flush the message downstream immediately. Instead, it should batch
ZMQ_NOFLUSH messages and send them downstream only once
.IR zmq_flush
is invoked. This is an optimisation for cases where several messages are sent
in a single business transaction. However, the effect is measurable only in
extremely high-perf scenarios (million messages a second or so).
If that's not your case, use standard flushing send instead.
.SH RETURN VALUE
In case of success the function returns zero. Otherwise it returns -1 and
sets
.IR errno
to the appropriate value.
.SH ERRORS
.IP "\fBEAGAIN\fP"
it's a non-blocking send and message cannot be sent at the moment.
.IP "\fBENOTSUP\fP"
function isn't supported by particular socket type.
.IP "\fBEFSM\fP"
function cannot be called at the moment, because socket is not in the

.SH NAME
zmq_socket \- creates 0MQ socket
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B void *zmq_socket (void *context, int type);
.SH DESCRIPTION
Open a socket within the specified
.IR context .
To create a context, use
.IR zmq_init
function.
.IR type
argument can be one of the values defined below. Note that each socket is owned
by exactly one thread (the one that it was created from) and should not be used
from any other thread.
.IP "\fBZMQ_P2P\fP"
Socket to communicate with a single peer. Allows for only a single connect or a
single bind. There's no message routing or message filtering involved.
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_P2P.
.IP "\fBZMQ_PUB\fP"
Socket to distribute data. Recv function is not implemented for this socket
type. Messages are distributed in fanout fashion to all the peers.
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_SUB.
.IP "\fBZMQ_SUB\fP"
Socket to subscribe for data. Send function is not implemented for this
socket type. Initially, socket is subscribed for no messages. Use ZMQ_SUBSCRIBE
option to specify which messages to subscribe for.
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_PUB.
.IP "\fBZMQ_REQ\fP"
Socket to send requests and receive replies. Requests are load-balanced among
all the peers. This socket type allows only an alternated sequence of
send's and recv's.
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_REP, ZMQ_XREP.
.IP "\fBZMQ_REP\fP"
Socket to receive requests and send replies. This socket type allows
only an alternated sequence of recv's and send's. Each send is routed to
the peer that issued the last received request.
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_REQ, ZMQ_XREQ.
.IP "\fBZMQ_XREQ\fP"
Special socket type to be used in request/reply middleboxes such as
.BR zmq_queue(7) .
Requests forwarded using this socket type should be tagged by a proper prefix
identifying the original requester. Replies received by this socket are tagged
with a proper postfix that can be use to route the reply back to the original
requester.
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_REP, ZMQ_XREP.
.IP "\fBZMQ_XREP\fP"
Special socket type to be used in request/reply middleboxes such as
.BR zmq_queue(7) .
Requests received using this socket are already properly tagged with prefix
identifying the original requester. When sending a reply via XREP socket the
message should be tagged with a prefix from a corresponding request.
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_REQ, ZMQ_XREQ.
.IP "\fBZMQ_UPSTREAM\fP"
Socket to receive messages from up the stream. Messages are fair-queued
from among all the connected peers. Send function is not implemented for
this socket type.
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_DOWNSTREAM.
.IP "\fBZMQ_DOWNSTREAM\fP"
Socket to send messages down stream. Messages are load-balanced among all the
connected peers. Recv function is not implemented for this socket type.
Compatible peer sockets: ZMQ_UPSTREAM.
.SH RETURN VALUE
Function returns socket handle is successful. Otherwise it returns NULL and
sets errno to one of the values below.
.SH ERRORS
.IP "\fBEINVAL\fP"
invalid socket type.
.IP "\fBEMTHREAD\fP"
the number of application threads allowed to own 0MQ sockets was exceeded. See
.IR app_threads
parameter to
.IR zmq_init
function.
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
void *s = zmq_socket (context, ZMQ_PUB);
assert (s);

.TH zmq_strerror 3 "" "(c)2007-2010 iMatix Corporation" "0MQ User Manuals"
.SH NAME
zmq_strerror \- returns string describing the error number
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B const char *zmq_strerror (int errnum);
.SH DESCRIPTION
As 0MQ defines few additional (non-POSIX) error codes, standard
.IR strerror
isn't capable of translating those errors into human readable strings. Instead,
.IR zmq_strerror
should be used.
.SH RETURN VALUE
Returns string describing the error number.
.SH ERRORS
No errors are defined.
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
void *ctx = zmq_init (1, 1, 0);
if (!ctx) {
printf ("error occured during zmq_init: %s\\n", zmq_strerror (errno));
abort ();
}
.fi

.TH zmq_term 3 "" "(c)2007-2010 iMatix Corporation" "0MQ User Manuals"
.SH NAME
zmq_term \- terminates 0MQ context
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B int zmq_term (void *context);
.SH DESCRIPTION
Destroys 0MQ context. However, if there are still any sockets open within
the context,
.IR zmq_term
succeeds but shutdown of the context is delayed till the last socket is closed.
.SH RETURN VALUE
Function returns zero is successful. Otherwise it returns -1 and
sets errno to one of the values below.
.SH ERRORS
No errors are defined.
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
int rc = zmq_term (context);
assert (rc == 0);

.TH zmq_cl 7 "" "(c)2007-2010 iMatix Corporation" "0MQ User Manuals"
.SH NAME
0MQ Common Lisp API \- interface between 0MQ and Common Lisp applications
.SH SYNOPSIS
This manual page explains how Common Lisp API maps to underlying C
API.
Common Lisp API repeats C API in general. All constants defined with C
API are available with Common Lisp API. C names are mapped to lisp
names by these rules: a) all names are `zmq' namespace; b) all names
are in lower case; c) underscores translate to dashes.
Example of mappings:
.IR zmq_msg_init_data
maps to
.IR zmq:msg-init-data
.IR ZMQ_PUB
maps to
.IR zmq:pub
To learn about individual functions and parameters check
appropriate C API manual pages.
For example, to understand
.IR zmq:setsockopt
function check
.BR zmq_setsockopt(3) .
.SH Data structures
Data structures are wrapped into CLOS classes with automatic memory
management. 0MQ describes two such structures:
.IR msg_t
and
.IR pollitem_t .
Message constructor supports keywords
.IR :size
and
.IR :data.
Keyword :size specifies the size of
message. Keyword :data specifies initial contents of message, and it
can be either string or 8-bit array. For example:
* (make-instance 'zmq:msg :data #(1 2 3))
creates a message with 3 bytes '1, 2, 3' in it.
.SH Accessing message data
There 3 functions to read message body in different forms:
msg-data-as-string, msg-data-as-array and msg-data-as-is, returning
data as string, as array and as raw foreign pointer to underlaying
buffer respectively. For example:
* (zmq:msg-data-as-array msg)
returns #(1 2 3) for message from previous example.
It is possible to access underlying foreign object via class slot
named `raw'.
* (slot-value obj 'zmq:raw)
or, if `obj' is of known type `msg':
* (zmq:msg-raw obj)
.SH Macros
There are several macroses to help with managing zeromq objects:
.SH with-context
Macro
.IR with-context
creates 0MQ context and requires 3 obligatory arguments: context name,
number of application threads and number of input/output
threads. Optional parameter `flags' can be also supplied, see
.BR zmq_init(3) .
Context is terminated implicitly at the end of macro block.
.SH with-socket
Macro
.IR with-socket
creates 0MQ socket within given context. Requires 3 arguments: socket
name, context name and socket type. See
.BR zmq_socket(3) .
Socket is closed implicitly at the end of macro block.
.SH with-polls
Macro
.IR with-polls
creates 0MQ polls, containing different sets of pollitems. For
example, to create two poll sets for network pipes:
* (zmq:with-polls ((poll1 . ((sock1 . zmq:pollin)
(sock2 . zmq:pollout)))
(poll2 . ((sock1 . zmq:pollout)
(sock2 . zmq:pollin))))
(process-sockets (zmq:poll poll-set1))
(process-sockets (zmq:poll poll-set2)))
Note,
.IR zmq:poll
returns list of revents for sockets from given poll set.
Polls are closed implicitly at the end of macro block.
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
(zmq::with-context (ctx 1 1)
(zmq:with-socket (s ctx zmq:pub)
(zmq:connect s "tcp://192.168.0.115:5555")
(zmq:send s (make-instance 'zmq:msg :data "Hello, world!"))))

.TH zmq_cpp 7 "" "(c)2007-2010 iMatix Corporation" "0MQ User Manuals"
.SH NAME
0MQ C++ API \- interface between 0MQ and C++ applications
.SH SYNOPSIS
This manual page explains how C++ API maps to underlying C API. To learn about
individual functions and parameters check appropriate C API manual
pages.
For example, to understand
.IR zmq::socket_t::setsockopt
function check
.BR zmq_setsockopt(3) .
All 0MQ constants defined with C API are available with C++ API.
.SH zmq::context_t
This class encapsulates the functions dealing with initialisation and
termination of 0MQ context. Constructor of the class invokes
.BR zmq_init(3)
while destructor calls
.BR zmq_term(3) .
.SH zmq::socket_t
This class encapsulates all the functions to deal with 0MQ sockets. Constructor
calls
.BR zmq_socket(3) ,
destructor calls
.BR zmq_close(3) .
Other functions of the class are mapped to C functions with corresponding names.
.IR zmq::socket_t::bind
calls
.BR zmq_bind(3)
etc.
.SH zmq::message_t
This class encapsulates
.IR zmq_msg_t
structure and all the C functions that deal with 0MQ messages.
Constructors of the class invoke corresponding initialisation functions (
.BR zmq_msg_init(3) ,
.BR zmq_msg_init_size(3)
and
.BR zmq_msg_init_data(3) ,
while destructor invokes
.BR zmq_msg_close(3)
function.
Remaining functions are mapped to C functions with corresponding names.
For instance,
.IR zmq::message_t::copy
is mapped to
.BR zmq_msg_copy(3)
etc.
C++ provides an additional function not available with C API.
.IR zmq::message_t::rebuild
is equivalent to calling
.BR zmq_close(3)
followed by
.BR zmq_msg_init(3) ,
.BR zmq_msg_init_size (3)
or
.BR zmq_msg_init_data(3) .
It provides a way to reuse existing
.IR zmq::message_t
instances to store different message content.
.SH zmq::error_t
All the errors reported using
.IR errno
mechanism in C API are automatically converted to exceptions in C++ API.
.IR zmq::error_t
is derived from
.IR std::exception
and uses
.BR zmq_strerror(3)
function to convert the error code to human-readable string.
.SH zmq::poll
.IR zmq::poll
function is a namespaced equivalent of raw C
.BR zmq_poll(3)
function.
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
zmq::context_t ctx (1, 1);
zmq::socket_t s (ctx, ZMQ_PUB);
s.connect ("tcp://192.168.0.115:5555");
zmq::message_t msg (100);
memset (msg.data (), 0, 100);
s.send (msg);
