Hi,

Thank you for the provided article. This article covers the main approach
to integrating zmq fd into event loops more precisely than stackoverflow
threads I've linked to my question. But it seems that there is still no
answer to my question there, because my problem is in the very beginning of
an integration process - I never get my IO_IN callback triggered :)
In other words, when I call `recv` method in a for loop directly, I got
data, but when I connect zmq file descriptor to glib event loop to listen
to IO_IN conditions, lambda function that handles such events is never
called.
I've also tried connecting to other conditions than IO_IN, actually to all
others (IO_ERR, IO_PRI, etc), but the result was the same except with
IO_OUT. IO_OUT condition triggers the callback, but writing to fd is not my
case, as I am using ZMQ_SUB socket which is only for read purpose.
