Context new zmqcontext not connect
A ZMQ (ZeroMQ) question!
When you create a new ZMQ context using zmq_ctx_new()
, you don't automatically connect to a socket. Instead, you need to create a socket using zmq_socket()
and then bind or connect it to a specific endpoint.
Here's an example:
#include <zmq.h>
int main() {
// Create a new ZMQ context
zmq_ctx_t *context = zmq_ctx_new();
// Create a new socket
zmq_socket_t *socket = zmq_socket(context, ZMQ_REQ);
// Set the socket options (e.g., linger, retries, etc.)
zmq_setsockopt(socket, ZMQ_LINGER, &linger, sizeof(linger));
// Bind the socket to a specific endpoint (e.g., a TCP port)
zmq_bind(socket, "tcp://*:5555");
// Now you can use the socket to send and receive messages
//...
// Clean up
zmq_close(socket);
zmq_ctx_term(context);
return 0;
}
In this example, we create a new ZMQ context using zmq_ctx_new()
, then create a new socket using zmq_socket()
with the ZMQ_REQ
socket type (which is a request-reply socket). We set some socket options using zmq_setsockopt()
, and then bind the socket to a specific endpoint using zmq_bind()
.
Note that zmq_bind()
binds the socket to a specific endpoint, whereas zmq_connect()
connects the socket to a specific endpoint. If you want to connect to a specific endpoint, you would use zmq_connect()
instead of zmq_bind()
.
