I received a bug report from a user who compiled zeromq 4.0.3 on Windows using 32-bit mingw. The code that blew up was:
context = LibZMQ.zmq_ctx_new rc = LibZMQ.zmq_ctx_set(context, ZMQ::MAX_SOCKETS, 1023) At this point, “rc” was returning -1 and the error message is “Invalid Argument”. After playing around with this a bit I discovered that the default MAX_SOCKETS was 63 on this platform. context = LibZMQ.zmq_ctx_new print LibZMQ.zmq_ctx_set(context, ZMQ::MAX_SOCKETS) # => prints “63” So, trying to set a value above 63 always fails. For further confirmation, I ran “make check” and noted that “test_ctx_options” also fails (though it doesn’t tell me why). Does anyone know why MAX_SOCKETS is set to 63 when compiling on Windows using mingw? When I look at the source, MAX_SOCKETS_DFLT is set to 1023! cr _______________________________________________ zeromq-dev mailing list zeromq-dev@lists.zeromq.org http://lists.zeromq.org/mailman/listinfo/zeromq-dev
