.SH NAME
In-process (inter-thread) tranport for 0MQ
.SH SYNOPSIS
In-process transport is optimised for passing messages betweem threads in the
same process.
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
the library (
.IR zmq_init
) with zero I/O worker threads.
.SH CONNECTION STRING
Connection string for inproc transport is "inproc://" followed by an arbitrary
string. There are no restrictions on the string format:
.nf
inproc://my_endpoint
inproc://feeds/opra/cboe
inproc://feeds.opra.nasdaq
inproc://!&W#($)_@_123*((^^^
.fi
.SH WIRE FORMAT
In-process transport transfers messages via memory thus there is no need for a
wire format specification.
