Variable Documentation

◆ ZMQ_AFFINITY

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_AFFINITY = ZMQ_AFFINITY

Set I/O thread affinity.

The ZMQ_AFFINITY option shall set the I/O thread affinity for newly created connections on the specified socket.

Affinity determines which threads from the ØMQ I/O thread pool associated with the socket's context shall handle newly created connections. A value of zero specifies no affinity, meaning that work shall be distributed fairly among all ØMQ I/O threads in the thread pool. For non-zero values, the lowest bit corresponds to thread 1, second lowest bit to thread 2 and so on. For example, a value of 3 specifies that subsequent connections on socket shall be handled exclusively by I/O threads 1 and 2.

0MQ Socket Option Information

Property Description
Option value type uint64_t
Option value unit N/A (bitmap)
Default value 0
Applicable socket types N/A

◆ ZMQ_BACKLOG

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_BACKLOG = ZMQ_BACKLOG

Set maximum length of the queue of outstanding connections.

The ZMQ_BACKLOG option shall set the maximum length of the queue of outstanding peer connections for the specified socket; this only applies to connection-oriented transports. For details refer to your operating system documentation for the listen function.

0MQ Socket Option Information

Property Description
Option value type int
Option value unit connections
Default value 100
Applicable socket types all, only for connection-oriented transports.

◆ ZMQ_CONFLATE

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_CONFLATE = ZMQ_CONFLATE

Keep only last message.

If set, a socket shall keep only one message in its inbound/outbound queue, this message being the last message received/the last message to be sent. Ignores ZMQ_RCVHWM and ZMQ_SNDHWM options. Does not support multi-part messages, in particular, only one part of it is kept in the socket internal queue.

0MQ Socket Option Information

Property Description
Option value type int
Option value unit boolean
Default value 0 (false)
Applicable socket types ZSocketPull, ZSocketPush, ZSocketSub, ZSocketPub, ZSocketDealer

◆ ZMQ_CONNECT_RID

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_CONNECT_RID = ZMQ_CONNECT_RID

Assign the next outbound connection id.

The ZMQ_CONNECT_RID option sets the peer id of the next host connected via the ZSocket::connect() call, and immediately readies that connection for data transfer with the named id. This option applies only to the first subsequent call to ZSocket::connect(), calls thereafter use default connection behaviour.

Typical use is to set this socket option ahead of each ZSocket::connect() attempt to a new host. Each connection MUST be assigned a unique name. Assigning a name that is already in use is not allowed.

Useful when connecting ROUTER to ROUTER, or STREAM to STREAM, as it allows for immediate sending to peers. Outbound id framing requirements for ROUTER and STREAM sockets apply.

The peer id should be from 1 to 255 bytes long and MAY NOT start with binary zero.

0MQ Socket Option Information

Property Description
Option value type binary data
N/A
nothing
ROUTER, STREAM

◆ ZMQ_CONNECT_TIMEOUT

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_CONNECT_TIMEOUT = ZMQ_CONNECT_TIMEOUT

Set connect timeout.

Sets how long to wait before timing-out a connect() system call. The connect() system call normally takes a long time before it returns a time out error. Setting this option allows the library to time out the call at an earlier interval.

Option value unit milliseconds
Default value 0 (disabled)
Applicable socket types all, when using TCP transports.

◆ ZMQ_CURVE_PUBLICKEY

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_CURVE_PUBLICKEY = ZMQ_CURVE_PUBLICKEY

Set CURVE public key.

Sets the socket's long term public key. You must set this on CURVE client sockets. You can provide the key as 32 binary bytes, or as a 40-character string encoded in the Z85 encoding format and terminated in a null byte. The public key must always be used with the matching secret key. To generate a public/secret key pair, use zmq_curve_keypair(). To derive the public key from a secret key, use zmq_curve_public().

0MQ Socket Option Information

Property Description
Option value type binary data or Z85 text string
Option value size 32 (binary) or 40 (byte character string)

Default value nothing
Applicable socket types all, when using TCP transport

◆ ZMQ_CURVE_SERVER

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_CURVE_SERVER = ZMQ_CURVE_SERVER

Set CURVE server role.

Defines whether the socket will act as server for CURVE security. A value of 1 means the socket will act as CURVE server. A value of 0 means the socket will not act as CURVE server, and its security role then depends on other option settings. Setting this to 0 shall reset the socket security to NULL. When you set this you must also set the server's secret key using the ZMQ_CURVE_SECRETKEY option. A server socket does not need to know its own public key.

0MQ Socket Option Information

Property Description
Option value type bool
Option value unit True, False
Default value False
Applicable socket types all, when using TCP transport

◆ ZMQ_CURVE_SERVERKEY

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_CURVE_SERVERKEY = ZMQ_CURVE_SERVERKEY

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_HANDSHAKE_IVL = ZMQ_HANDSHAKE_IVL

Set maximum handshake interval.

The ZMQ_HANDSHAKE_IVL option shall set the maximum handshake interval for the specified socket. Handshaking is the exchange of socket configuration information (socket type, identity, security) that occurs when a connection is first opened, only for connection-oriented transports. If handshaking does not complete within the configured time, the connection shall be closed. The value 0 means no handshake time limit.

0MQ Socket Option Information

Property Description
Option value type int
Option value unit milliseconds
Default value 30000
Applicable socket types all but STREAM, only for connection-oriented transports

◆ ZMQ_HEARTBEAT_IVL

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_HEARTBEAT_IVL = ZMQ_HEARTBEAT_IVL

Set interval between sending ZMTP heartbeats.

The ZMQ_HEARTBEAT_IVL option shall set the interval between sending ZMTP heartbeats for the specified socket. If this option is set and is greater than 0, then a PING ZMTP command will be sent every ZMQ_HEARTBEAT_IVL milliseconds.

0MQ Socket Option Information

Property Description
Option value type int
Option value unit milliseconds
Default value 0
Applicable socket types all, when using connection-oriented transports

◆ ZMQ_HEARTBEAT_TIMEOUT

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_HEARTBEAT_TIMEOUT = ZMQ_HEARTBEAT_TIMEOUT

Set timeout for ZMTP heartbeats.

The ZMQ_HEARTBEAT_TIMEOUT option shall set how long to wait before timing-out a connection after sending a PING command and not receiving any traffic. This option is only valid if ZMQ_HEARTBEAT_IVL is also set, and is greater than 0. The connection will time out if there is no traffic received after sending the PING command, but the received traffic does not have to be a PONG command - any received traffic will cancel the timeout.

0MQ Socket Option Information

Property Description
Option value type int
Option value unit milliseconds
Default value 0
Applicable socket types all, when using connection-oriented transports

◆ ZMQ_HEARTBEAT_TTL

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_HEARTBEAT_TTL = ZMQ_HEARTBEAT_TTL

Set the TTL value for ZMTP heartbeats.

The ZMQ_HEARTBEAT_TTL option shall set the timeout on the remote peer for ZMTP heartbeats. If this option is greater than 0, the remote side shall time out the connection if it does not receive any more traffic within the TTL period. This option does not have any effect if ZMQ_HEARTBEAT_IVL is not set or is 0. Internally, this value is rounded down to the nearest decisecond, any value less than 100 will have no effect.

0MQ Socket Option Information

Property Description
Option value type int
Option value unit milliseconds
Default value 0
Applicable socket types all, when using connection-oriented transports

◆ ZMQ_IDENTITY

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_IDENTITY = ZMQ_IDENTITY

Set socket identity.

The ZMQ_IDENTITY option shall set the identity of the specified socket when connecting to a ROUTER socket. The identity should be from 1 to 255 bytes long and may contain any values.

If two clients use the same identity when connecting to a ROUTER, the results shall depend on the ZMQ_ROUTER_HANDOVER option setting. If that is not set (or set to the default of zero), the ROUTER socket shall reject clients trying to connect with an already-used identity. If that option is set to 1, the ROUTER socket shall hand-over the connection to the new client and disconnect the existing one.

0MQ Socket Option Information

Property Description
Option value type binary data
Option value unit N/A
Default value NULL
Applicable socket types REQ, REP, ROUTER, DEALER.

◆ ZMQ_IMMEDIATE

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_IMMEDIATE = ZMQ_IMMEDIATE

Queue messages only to completed connections.

By default queues will fill on outgoing connections even if the connection has not completed. This can lead to "lost" messages on sockets with round-robin routing (REQ, PUSH, DEALER). If this option is set to True, messages shall be queued only to completed connections. This will cause the socket to block if there are no other connections, but will prevent queues from filling on pipes awaiting connection.

0MQ Socket Option Information

Property Description
Option value type bool
Option value unit True, False
Default value False
Applicable socket types all, only for connection-oriented transports.

◆ ZMQ_INVERT_MATCHING

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_INVERT_MATCHING = ZMQ_INVERT_MATCHING

Invert message filtering.

Reverses the filtering behavior of PUB-SUB sockets, when set to True.

On PUB and XPUB sockets, this causes messages to be sent to all connected sockets except those subscribed to a prefix that matches the message. On SUB sockets, this causes only incoming messages that do not match any of the socket's subscriptions to be received by the user.

Whenever ZMQ_INVERT_MATCHING is set to True on a PUB socket, all SUB sockets connecting to it must also have the option set to 1. Failure to do so will have the SUB sockets reject everything the PUB socket sends them. XSUB sockets do not need to do this because they do not filter incoming messages.

0MQ Socket Option Information

Property Description
Option value type bool
Option value unit True, False
Default value False
Applicable socket types PUB, XPUB, SUB

◆ ZMQ_IPV6

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_IPV6 = ZMQ_IPV6

Enable IPv6 on socket.

Set the IPv6 option for the socket. A value of True means IPv6 is enabled on the socket, while False means the socket will use only IPv4. When IPv6 is enabled the socket will connect to, or accept connections from, both IPv4 and IPv6 hosts.

0MQ Socket Option Information

Property Description
Option value type bool
Option value unit True, False
Default value False
Applicable socket types all, when using TCP transports.

◆ ZMQ_LINGER

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_LINGER = ZMQ_LINGER

Set linger period for socket shutdown.

The ZMQ_LINGER option shall set the linger period for the specified socket. The linger period determines how long pending messages which have yet to be sent to a peer shall linger in memory after a socket is disconnected and further affects the termination of the socket's context.

he following outlines the different behaviours:

  • -1: specifies an infinite linger period. Pending messages shall not be discarded after a disconnect or close; attempting to terminate the socket's context shall block until all pending messages have been sent to a peer.
  • 0: specifies no linger period. Pending messages shall be discarded immediately after a disconnect or close.
  • positive values: specify an upper bound for the linger period in milliseconds. Pending messages shall not be discarded after a disconnect or close; attempting to terminate the socket's context shall block until either all pending messages have been sent to a peer, or the linger period expires, after which any pending messages shall be discarded.

The ZMQ_RECONNECT_IVL option shall set the initial reconnection interval for the specified socket. The reconnection interval is the period ØMQ shall wait between attempts to reconnect disconnected peers when using connection-oriented transports. The value -1 means no reconnection.

The reconnection interval may be randomized by ØMQ to prevent reconnection storms in topologies with a large number of peers per socket.

◆ ZMQ_RECONNECT_IVL_MAX

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_RECONNECT_IVL_MAX = ZMQ_RECONNECT_IVL_MAX

Set maximum reconnection interval.

The ZMQ_RECONNECT_IVL_MAX option shall set the maximum reconnection interval for the specified socket. This is the maximum period ØMQ shall wait between attempts to reconnect. On each reconnect attempt, the previous interval shall be doubled until ZMQ_RECONNECT_IVL_MAX is reached. This allows for exponential backoff strategy. Default value means no exponential backoff is performed and reconnect interval calculations are only based on ZMQ_RECONNECT_IVL.

Values less than ZMQ_RECONNECT_IVL will be ignored.

◆ ZMQ_RECOVERY_IVL

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_RECOVERY_IVL = ZMQ_RECOVERY_IVL

Set multicast recovery interval.

The ZMQ_RECOVERY_IVL option shall set the recovery interval for multicast transports using the specified socket. The recovery interval determines the maximum time in milliseconds that a receiver can be absent from a multicast group before unrecoverable data loss will occur.

Exercise care when setting large recovery intervals as the data needed for recovery will be held in memory. For example, a 1 minute recovery interval at a data rate of 1Gbps requires a 7GB in-memory buffer.

◆ ZMQ_REQ_CORRELATE

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_REQ_CORRELATE = ZMQ_REQ_CORRELATE

match replies with requests

The default behaviour of REQ sockets is to rely on the ordering of messages to match requests and responses and that is usually sufficient. When this option is set to 1, the REQ socket will prefix outgoing messages with an extra frame containing a request id. That means the full message is (request id, 0, user frames…). The REQ socket will discard all incoming messages that don't begin with these two frames.

◆ ZMQ_REQ_RELAXED

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_REQ_RELAXED = ZMQ_REQ_RELAXED

relax strict alternation between request and reply

By default, a REQ socket does not allow initiating a new request with send() until the reply to the previous one has been received. When set to True, sending another message is allowed and previous replies will be discarded if any. The request-reply state machine is reset and a new request is sent to the next available peer.

If set to True, also enable ZMQ_REQ_CORRELATE to ensure correct matching of requests and replies. Otherwise a late reply to an aborted request can be reported as the reply to the superseding request.

◆ ZMQ_ROUTER_HANDOVER

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_ROUTER_HANDOVER = ZMQ_ROUTER_HANDOVER

handle duplicate client identities on ROUTER sockets

If two clients use the same identity when connecting to a ROUTER, the results shall depend on the ZMQ_ROUTER_HANDOVER option setting. If that is not set (or set to the default of zero), the ROUTER socket shall reject clients trying to connect with an already-used identity. If that option is set to True, the ROUTER socket shall hand-over the connection to the new client and disconnect the existing one.

◆ ZMQ_ROUTER_MANDATORY

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_ROUTER_MANDATORY = ZMQ_ROUTER_MANDATORY

accept only routable messages on ROUTER sockets

Sets the ROUTER socket behaviour when an unroutable message is encountered. A value of False is the default and discards the message silently when it cannot be routed or the peers SNDHWM is reached. A value of True returns an EHOSTUNREACH error code if the message cannot be routed or EAGAIN error code if the SNDHWM is reached and ZMQ_DONTWAIT was used. Without ZMQ_DONTWAIT it will block until the SNDTIMEO is reached or a spot in the send queue opens up.

◆ ZMQ_SNDHWM

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_SNDHWM = ZMQ_SNDHWM

Set the high water mark for outbound messages.

If this limit has been reached the socket shall enter an exceptional state and depending on the socket type, ØMQ shall take appropriate action such as blocking or dropping sent messages. Refer to the individual socket descriptions for details on the exact action taken for each socket type.

ØMQ does not guarantee that the socket will accept as many messages as set here, and the actual limit may be as much as 60-70% lower depending on the flow of messages on the socket.

◆ ZMQ_SNDTIMEO

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_SNDTIMEO = ZMQ_SNDTIMEO

Maximum time before a send operation returns with EAGAIN.

Sets the timeout for send operation on the socket. If the value is 0, send operations will return immediately with an EAGAIN error if the message cannot be sent. If the value is -1, it will block until the message is sent. For all other values, it will try to send the message for that amount of time before returning with an EAGAIN error.

◆ ZMQ_SUBSCRIBE

const Qore::ZMQ::ZMQ_SUBSCRIBE = ZMQ_SUBSCRIBE

Establish message filter.

The ZMQ_SUBSCRIBE option shall establish a new message filter on a SUB socket. Newly created SUB sockets shall filter out all incoming messages, therefore you should call this option to establish an initial message filter.

An empty option_value of length zero shall subscribe to all incoming messages. A non-empty option_value shall subscribe to all messages beginning with the specified prefix. Multiple filters may be attached to a single SUB socket, in which case a message shall be accepted if it matches at least one filter.
