NAME

       zmq_unbind - Stop accepting connections on a socket

SYNOPSIS

       int zmq_unbind (void *socket, const char *endpoint);

DESCRIPTION

       The zmq_unbind() function shall unbind a socket specified by the socket argument from the
       endpoint specified by the endpoint argument.

       The endpoint argument is as described in zmq_bind(3)

   Unbinding wild-card addres from a socket
       When wild-card * endpoint (described in zmq_tcp(7) and zmq_ipc(7)) was used in zmq_bind(),
       the caller should use real endpoind obtained from the ZMQ_LAST_ENDPOINT socket option to
       unbind this endpoint from a socket.

RETURN VALUE

       The zmq_unbind() function shall return zero if successful. Otherwise it shall return -1
       and set errno to one of the values defined below.

ERRORS

       EINVAL
           The endpoint supplied is invalid.

       ETERM
           The 0MQ context associated with the specified socket was terminated.

       ENOTSOCK
           The provided socket was invalid.

EXAMPLES

       Unbind a subscriber socket from a TCP transport.

           /* Create a ZMQ_SUB socket */
           void *socket = zmq_socket (context, ZMQ_SUB);
           assert (socket);
           /* Connect it to the host server001, port 5555 using a TCP transport */
           rc = zmq_bind (socket, "tcp://127.0.0.1:5555");
           assert (rc == 0);
           /* Disconnect from the previously connected endpoint */
           rc = zmq_unbind (socket, "tcp://127.0.0.1:5555");
           assert (rc == 0);

       Unbind wild-card * binded socket.

           /* Create a ZMQ_SUB socket */
           void *socket = zmq_socket (context, ZMQ_SUB);
           assert (socket);
           /* Bind it to the system-assigned ephemeral port using a TCP transport */
           rc = zmq_bind (socket, "tcp://127.0.0.1:*");
           assert (rc == 0);
           /* Obtain real endpoint */
           const size_t buf_size = 32;
           char buf[buf_size];
           rc = zmq_getsockopt (socket, ZMQ_LAST_ENDPOINT, buf, (size_t *)&buf_size);
           assert (rc == 0);
           /* Unbind socket by real endpoint */
           rc = zmq_unbind (socket, buf);
           assert (rc == 0);
