It's unclear which we need and in the source code, conditional code
treats tweetnacl as a subclass of libsodium, which is inaccurate.
Solution: redesign the configure/cmake API for this:
* tweetnacl is present by default and cannot be enabled
* libsodium can be enabled using --with-libsodium, which replaces
the built-in tweetnacl
* CURVE encryption can be disabled entirely using --enable-curve=no
The macros we define in platform.hpp are:
ZMQ_HAVE_CURVE 1 // When CURVE is enabled
HAVE_LIBSODIUM 1 // When we are using libsodium
HAVE_TWEETNACL 1 // When we're using tweetnacl (default)
As of this patch, the default build of libzmq always has CURVE
security, and always uses tweetnacl.
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.
Solution: be more explicit in the code, and in the zmq_recv man
page (which is the most unobvious case). Assert if length is not
zero and buffer is nonetheless null.
These sockets don't handle multipart data, so if callers send it,
they drop frames, and things break silently.
Solution: if the caller tries to use ZMQ_SNDMORE, return -1 and
set errno to EINVAL.
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.
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.
This commit adds a ZMQ_POLLPRI flag that maps to poll()'s POLLPRI
flag.
This flags does nothing for OMQ sockets. It's only useful for raw
file descriptor (be it socket or file).
This flag does nothing if poll() is not the underlying polling
function. So it is Linux only.
As libzmq is compiled with optional transports and security mechanisms,
there is no clean way for applications to determine what capabilities
are actually available in a given libzmq instance.
Solution: provide an API specifically for capability reporting. The
zmq_has () method is meant to be open ended. It accepts a string so
that we can add arbitrary capabilities without breaking existing
applications.
zmq.h also defines ZMQ_HAS_CAPABILITIES when this method is provided.
- copy and move message operations are updated to maintain proper
reference count of properties object
- zmq_msg_gets updated to use i_properties interface to fetch property
value
- setter/getter added to msg_t class
Added modifiers reflect the following properties:
- zmq_msg_gets () does not mutate property parameter
- zmq_msg_gets () returns a pointer to memory the caller should not
modify
On Solaris 8, 9, 10/SPARC, iov_base is of type caddr_t which is char *. The Sun C++ compiler errors with "Cannot assign void* to char*". Using a static case to override this. On Solaris 11, HP-UX, AIX, and RHEL, iov_base is void * so no issues there. This seems a rather hackish solution so open to something better.
