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:

I hope restoring this from a previous version doesn't do any damage, it
is missing in the current version of this repository and is vital for
the lib to compile anywhere.
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.
