ØMQ Manual - ØMQ/2.2.0
Name
zmq_cpp - interface between ØMQ and C++ applications
Synopsis
#include <zmq.hpp>
c++ [flags] files -lzmq [libraries]
Description
This manual page describes how the ØMQ C++ language binding maps to the underlying ØMQ C library functions.
All ØMQ constants defined by zmq.h are also available to the C++ language binding.
The following classes are provided in the zmq namespace:
Context
The context_t class encapsulates functionality dealing with the initialisation and termination of a ØMQ context.
Constructor
context_t::context_t(int io_threads)
Maps to the zmq_init() function, as described in zmq_init(3).
Destructor
context_t::~context_t(void)
Maps to the zmq_term() function, as described in zmq_term(3).
Methods
None.
Socket
The socket_t class encapsulates a ØMQ socket.
Constructor
socket_t::socket_t(context_t &context, int type)
Maps to the zmq_socket() function, as described in zmq_socket(3).
Destructor
socket_t::~socket_t(void)
Calls the zmq_close() function, as described in zmq_close(3).
Methods
void socket_t::getsockopt(int option_name, void *option_value, size_t *option_len)
Maps to the zmq_getsockopt() function, as described in zmq_getsockopt(3).
void socket_t::setsockopt(int option_name, const void *option_value, size_t option_len)
Maps to the zmq_setsockopt() function, as described in zmq_setsockopt(3).
void socket_t::bind(const char *endpoint)
Maps to the zmq_bind() function, as described in zmq_bind(3).
void socket_t::connect(const char *endpoint)
Maps to the zmq_connect() function, as described in zmq_connect(3).
bool socket_t::send(message_t &msg, int flags = 0)
Maps to the zmq_send() function, as described in zmq_send(3). Returns true if message is successfully sent, false if it is not.
bool socket_t::recv(message_t *msg, int flags = 0)
Maps to the zmq_recv() function, as described in zmq_recv(3). Returns true if message is successfully received, false if it is not.
Message
The zmq::message_t class encapsulates the zmq_msg_t structure and functions to construct, destruct and manipulate ØMQ messages.
Constructor
message_t::message_t(void) message_t::message_t(size_t size) message_t::message_t(void *data, size_t size, free_fn *ffn)
These map to the zmq_msg_init(), zmq_msg_init_size() and zmq_msg_init_data() functions, described in zmq_msg_init(3), zmq_msg_init_size(3) and zmq_msg_init_data(3) respectively.
Destructor
message_t::~message_t(void)
Calls the zmq_msg_close() function, as described in zmq_msg_close(3).
Methods
void *message_t::data (void)
Maps to the zmq_msg_data() function, as described in zmq_msg_data(3).
size_t message_t::size (void)
Maps to the zmq_msg_size() function, as described in zmq_msg_size(3).
void message_t::copy (message_t *src)
Maps to the zmq_msg_copy() function, as described in zmq_msg_copy(3).
void message_t::move (message_t *src)
Maps to the zmq_msg_move() function, as described in zmq_msg_move(3).
message_t::rebuild(void) message_t::rebuild(size_t size) message_t::rebuild(void *data, size_t size, free_fn *ffn)
Equivalent to calling the zmq_msg_close() function followed by the corresponding zmq_msg_init() function.
Input/output multiplexing
int poll (zmq_pollitem_t *items, int nitems, long timeout = -1)
The poll() function is a namespaced equivalent of the zmq_poll() function, as described in zmq_poll(3).
To obtain a ØMQ socket for use in a zmq_pollitem_t structure, you should cast an instance of the socket_t class to (void *).
Error handling
All errors reported by the underlying ØMQ C library functions are automatically converted to exceptions by the C++ language binding. The zmq::error_t class is derived from the std::exception class and uses the zmq_strerror() function to convert the error code to human-readable string.

Is possible has a section "How to integrate zmq.hpp"
I copy zmq.hpp under /usr/include (I install the framework whit prefix /usr/) but not compile
