* disabled the specific tests that do not work (yet) on libzmq
* cleaned up one source (test_spec_rep.c) but the others need similar work
* added sleep in test_spec_rep to allow connects time to happen; this would
not be needed if we connected out to the REP peers instead in from them,
but I didn't want to change the logic of the test code.
* See http://rfc.zeromq.org/spec:28/REQREP
* Not all testable statements are covered.
* At this point, there are several failures:
- test_spec_req: The REQ socket does not correctly discard messages
from peers that are not currently being talked to.
- test_spec_dealer/router: On disconnect, the queues seem to not be
emptied. The DEALER can still receive a message the disconnected
peer sent, the ROUTER can still send to the identity of the dis-
connected peer.
The window scale option carried in SYN segment is computed from socket's
receive buffer size. So we need to set this buffer size before calling
connect or bind.
The use of binary for CURVE keys is painful; you cannot easily copy
these in e.g. email, or use them directly in source code. There are
various encoding possibilities. Base16 and Base64 are not optimal.
Ascii85 is not safe for source (it generates quotes and escapes).
So, I've designed a new Base85 encoding, Z85, which is safe to use
in code and elsewhere, and I've modified libzmq to use this where
it also uses binary keys (in get/setsockopt).
Very simply, if you use a 32-byte value, it's Base256 (binary),
and if you use a 40-byte value, it's Base85 (Z85).
I've put the Z85 codec into z85_codec.hpp, it's not elegant C++
but it is minimal and it works. Feel free to rewrap as a real class
if this annoys you.
- designed for TCP clients and servers
- added HTTP client / server example in tests/test_stream.cpp
- same as ZMQ_ROUTER + ZMQ_ROUTER_RAW + ZMQ_ROUTER_MANDATORY
- includes b893ce set ZMQ_IDENTITY on outgoing connect
- deprecates ZMQ_ROUTER_RAW
Identity stored during connect procedure. Can be read using
zmq_getsockopt and used as the identity frame when sending messages.
This allows the implementation of a raw socket client.
