Solution: when a connection breaks and ZMQ_RECONNECT_IVL is set to -1,
which means a reconnection will not be attempted, send a message from
the I/O thread to the application thread to make the socket call
term_endpoint, which is the equivalent of manually calling
zmq_disconnect.
This way subsequent zmq_connect call to the same endpoint will attempt
again to do a connection.
Otherwise, for some socket types like SUBs, those new connects will
fail as the endpoint is recorded, despite the connection having been
permanently closed.
Add test cases to exercise this corner case with TCP and IPC.
Solution:
- Add file for testing ancillary API methods and any misc internal machinery
- Add tests for zmq_version(3) and zmq_strerror(3)
- Add test file into gitignore, Autotools and CMake build files
- Increase test coverage
Note:
MSVC solution files have not been updated.
Solution:
- Add Doxygen.cfg file to make it simpler for library users and interested
parties to view library internals/externals
- Add README.doxygen.md as an Overview for Doxygen-generated documentation
Notes:
This could later be added into CI for autogenerated documentation that could be
posted to the gh-pages branch.
* Added a new .gitignore file for excluding Visual Studio build output any popular plug-in generated content. (This was copied from the GitHub project https://github.com/github/gitignore).
* Removed the basic ignore settings from the root folder in favour of more precision within the subfolder's .gitignore file
* Added the new VC compiler's experimental Intellisense database file
Solution: remove temporarily until proper message limits have been
implemented, then a more granular test case can be added without
such high requirements which are problematic in embedded environment,
build systems, VMs and CI systems
libzmq used to switch off pedantic checks when using tweetnacl. As
this is now the default, that means pedantic checks are always off.
This is not good.
Solution: in tweetnacl.c alone, use a GCC pragma to disable sign
comparison warnings. We could also clean the code up yet this is
simpler. In other code, we still want those warnings, hence I've
used a pragma rather than global compile option.
Second, use -Wno-long-long all the time, as this warning does not
work with a pragma.
I removed code that set -wno-long-long, for MinGW and Solaris.
Related problem 2: --with-relaxed is badly named
This option switches off pedantic checks, so should be called
--disable-pedantic. 'with' is for optional packages.
I'm adding gyp support so that we can easily pull in libzmq
and other C/C++ projects into gyp packages, especially via
node-gyp.
Solution: add gyp definition
This works only for Windows, OS/X, and Linux. We set a single
macro in project.gyp according to the system, and the rest is
done in builds/gyp/platform.hpp. The values in that file are
not dynamic. Your mileage will vary.
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.
Solution: parse the value set by the ZMQ_PRE_ALLOCATED_FD sockopt
when creating a new TCP socket and use it if valid.
Add new tests/test_pre_allocated_fd_tcp.cpp unit test.
Solution: parse the value set by the ZMQ_PRE_ALLOCATED_FD sockopt
when creating a new IPC socket and use it if valid.
Add new tests/test_pre_allocated_fd_ipc.cpp unit test.
Allows non-C/C++ based clients easy access to the peer's IP address via
zmq_msg_gets(&msg, "Peer-Address") instead of zmq_msg_get(&msg, ZMQ_SRCFD)
followed by calls to getpeername and getnameinfo
Solution: as libzmq already provides this across all platforms,
expose an atomic counter API. I've not wrapped atomic pointers,
though someone who needs this may want to do so.
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.
