And I'm on a reasonably sized laptop. I think allocating INT_MAX
memory is dangerous in a test case.
Solution: expose this as a context option. I've used ZMQ_MAX_MSGSZ
and documented it and implemented the API. However I don't know how
to get the parent context for a socket, so the code in zmq.cpp is
still unfinished.
These options are confusing and redundant. Their names suggest
they apply to the tcp:// transport, yet they are used for all
stream protocols. The methods zmq::set_tcp_receive_buffer and
zmq::set_tcp_send_buffer don't use these values at all, they use
ZMQ_SNDBUF and ZMQ_RCVBUF.
Solution: merge these new options into ZMQ_SNDBUF and ZMQ_RCVBUF.
This means defaulting these two options to 8192, and removing the
new options. We now have ZMQ_SNDBUF and ZMQ_RCVBUF being used both
for TCP socket control, and for input/output buffering.
Note: the default for SNDBUF and RCVBUF are otherwise 4096.
This option has a few issues. The name is long and clumsy. The
functonality is not smooth: one must set both this and
ZMQ_XPUB_VERBOSE at the same time, or things will break mysteriously.
Solution: rename to ZMQ_XPUB_VERBOSER and make an atomic option.
That is, implicitly does ZMQ_XPUB_VERBOSE.
Solution: add new [set|get]sockopt ZMQ_PRE_ALLOCATED_FD to allow
users to let ZMQ use a pre-allocated file descriptor instead of
allocating a new one. Update [set|get]sockopt documentation and
test accordingly.
The main use case for this feature is a socket-activated systemd
service. For more information about this feature see:

If we're going to add CLASS-like APIs we should use the proper
syntax; specifically 'destroy' instead of 'close', which is a
hangover from the 'ZeroMQ is like sockets' model we're slowly
moving away from.
Solution: change zmq_timers_close(p) to zmq_timers_destroy(&p)
VMCI transport allows fast communication between the Host
and a virtual machine, between virtual machines on the same host,
and within a virtual machine (like IPC).
It requires VMware to be installed on the host and Guest Additions
to be installed on a guest.
Fixes not receiving unsubscription messages in XPUB socket with
ZMQ_XPUB_VERBOSE and using a XSUB-XPUB proxy in front.
This adds two modifications:
- It adds a new flag, ZMQ_XPUB_VERBOSE_UNSUBSCRIBE, to enable verbose
unsubscription messages, necessary when using a XSUB/XPUB proxy.
- It adds a boolean switch to zmq::mtrie_t::rm () to control if the
callback is invoked every time or only in the last removal. Necessary
when a pipe is terminated and the verbose mode for unsubscriptions is
enabled.
Of course people still "can" distributed the sources under the
LGPLv3. However we provide COPYING.LESSER with additional grants.
Solution: specify these grants in the header of each source file.
