Not quite. At the moment we don't have the equivalent of the POSIX shutdown() system call, this is something that should probably be added in a future release. What you can do is (with respect to a single socket): 1) Process incoming requests, possibly sending replies. 2) Call zmq_close(). Without setting ZMQ_LINGER this will ensure that any replies queued but not yet sent will get forwardred to the network. 3) Call zmq_term(). This blocks until the messages pending to be sent are actually sent. Note this is all for ZeroMQ 2.1 (master branch). 2.0.x just drops everything on zmq_close(). 2.1.0 will be released shortly. -mato _______________________________________________ zeromq-dev mailing list zeromq-dev@lists.zeromq.org http://lists.zeromq.org/mailman/listinfo/zeromq-dev
