.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
\fBint zmq_term (void \fR\fB\fI*context\fR\fR\fB);\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
The \fIzmq_term()\fR function terminates the 0MQ context \fIcontext\fR\&.
.sp
If there are no longer any sockets open within \fIcontext\fR at the time \fIzmq_term()\fR is called then \fIcontext\fR shall be shut down and all associated resources shall be released immediately\&.
.sp
Otherwise, the following applies:
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
The
\fIzmq_term()\fR
function shall return immediately\&.
.RE
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
Any blocking operations currently in progress on sockets open within
\fIcontext\fR
shall return immediately with an error code of ETERM\&.

.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3

With the exception of
\fIzmq_close()\fR, any further operations on sockets open within
\fIcontext\fR
shall fail with an error code of ETERM\&.

.ie n \{\

The actual shutdown of
\fIcontext\fR, and release of any associated resources,
\fBshall be delayed\fR
until the last socket within it is closed with
\fIzmq_close()\fR\&.

.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.sp
The \fIzmq_term()\fR function shall return zero if successful\&. Otherwise it shall return \-1 and set \fIerrno\fR to one of the values defined below\&.
