It would be more consistent IMO to always name sockets after the role that the node plays. Now, request/response are named after the type of message, publish/subscriber after the role of the node, and upstream/downstream are perversely named after the role of the /receiving/ node. This is not about requiring paradigm shifts or better documentation, it's about using consistent names that provide some kind of model the poor developer can depend on. The names Mato and I proposed for the pipeline pattern were: ZMQ_BF_CLIENT, ZMQ_WORKER, ZMQ_COLLECTOR See http://www.zeromq.org/draft:explicit-patterns -Pieter _______________________________________________ zeromq-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zeromq.org/mailman/listinfo/zeromq-dev
