NAME

       zmq_msg_close - release 0MQ message

SYNOPSIS

       int zmq_msg_close (zmq_msg_t *msg);

DESCRIPTION

       The zmq_msg_close() function shall inform the 0MQ infrastructure that any resources
       associated with the message object referenced by msg are no longer required and may be
       released. Actual release of resources associated with the message object shall be
       postponed by 0MQ until all users of the message or underlying data buffer have indicated
       it is no longer required.

       Applications should ensure that zmq_msg_close() is called once a message is no longer
       required, otherwise memory leaks may occur. Note that this is NOT necessary after a
       successful zmq_msg_send().

           Caution
           Never access zmq_msg_t members directly, instead always use the zmq_msg family of
           functions.

RETURN VALUE

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

ERRORS

       EFAULT
           Invalid message.
