NAME

       xs_zmq - Crossroads I/O ZeroMQ compatibility library

SYNOPSIS

       #include <zmq.h>

       cc [flags] files -lzmq [libraries]

DESCRIPTION

       This libzmq compatibility library is provided by the Crossroads I/O project as a
       transitional drop-in replacement for existing applications and language bindings written
       for the ZeroMQ library.

       The intent is to ease transition of existing ZeroMQ applications and language bindings to
       Crossroads I/O, thus this feature will not be maintained indefinitely and developers are
       strongly encouraged to migrate their applications to native libxs interfaces.

       libzmq interfaces provided emulate those provided by ZeroMQ release 2.1.11, and binary
       compatibility is provided for ABI version 1.0.0.

       Existing applications can use these interfaces as a drop-in replacement for the
       ZeroMQ-provided libzmq by installing the Crossroads version of this library in its place.
       Applications can also be recompiled against this library with no code or build system
       changes.

           Important
           The libzmq compatibility library is an optional component of Crossroads I/O, and is
           only built and installed if your copy of the Crossroads library was configured with
           --enable-libzmq at build time.

CONSTANTS

       All constants defined by the ZeroMQ 2.1.11 version of <zmq.h> are also defined in the
       Crossroads version.

INTERFACES

   Context
           void *zmq_init (int io_threads);
           int zmq_term (void *context);

           int zmq_bind (void *socket, const char *endpoint);
           int zmq_setsockopt (void *socket, int option_name, const void *option_value, size_t option_len);
           int zmq_getsockopt (void *socket, int option_name, void *option_value, size_t *option_len);
           int zmq_poll (zmq_pollitem_t *items, int nitems, long timeout);

   Messages
           int zmq_msg_init (zmq_msg_t *msg);
           int zmq_msg_init_size (zmq_msg_t *msg, size_t size);
           int zmq_msg_init_data (zmq_msg_t *msg, void *data, size_t size, zmq_free_fn *ffn, void *hint);
           size_t zmq_msg_size (zmq_msg_t *msg);
           void *zmq_msg_data (zmq_msg_t *msg);
           int zmq_msg_close (zmq_msg_t *msg);
           int zmq_msg_copy (zmq_msg_t *dest, zmq_msg_t *src);
           int zmq_msg_move (zmq_msg_t *dest, zmq_msg_t *src);

   Sending and receiving
           int zmq_send (void *socket, zmq_msg_t *msg, int flags);
           int zmq_recv (void *socket, zmq_msg_t *msg, int flags);

   Devices
           int zmq_device (int device, const void *frontend, const void *backend);

   Error handling
           int zmq_errno (void);
           const char *zmq_strerror (int errnum);

   Version detection
           void zmq_version (int *major, int *minor, int *patch);

           Note
           The version numbers returned by this function are the emulated ZeroMQ API version,
           i.e. 2.1.11.
