<h2 id="_description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>The <em>zmq_poll()</em> function provides a mechanism for applications to multiplex
input/output events in a level-triggered fashion over a set of sockets. Each
member of the array pointed to by the <em>items</em> argument is a <strong>zmq_pollitem_t</strong>
structure. The <em>nitems</em> argument specifies the number of items in the <em>items</em>
array. The <strong>zmq_pollitem_t</strong> structure is defined as follows:</p></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><tt>typedef struct
{
void <em>*socket</em>;
int <em>fd</em>;
short <em>events</em>;
short <em>revents</em>;
} zmq_pollitem_t;</tt></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>For each <strong>zmq_pollitem_t</strong> item, <em>zmq_poll()</em> shall examine either the ØMQ
socket referenced by <em>socket</em> <strong>or</strong> the standard socket specified by the file
descriptor <em>fd</em>, for the event(s) specified in <em>events</em>. If both <em>socket</em> and
<em>fd</em> are set in a single <strong>zmq_pollitem_t</strong>, the ØMQ socket referenced by
<em>socket</em> shall take precedence and the value of <em>fd</em> shall be ignored.</p></div>
<div class="admonitionblock">
<table><tr>
<td class="icon">
<div class="title">Note</div>
</td>
<td class="content">All ØMQ sockets passed to the <em>zmq_poll()</em> function must share the
same ØMQ <em>context</em> and must belong to the thread calling <em>zmq_poll()</em>.</td>
</tr></table>
</div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>For each <strong>zmq_pollitem_t</strong> item, <em>zmq_poll()</em> shall first clear the <em>revents</em>
member, and then indicate any requested events that have occurred by setting the
bit corresponding to the event condition in the <em>revents</em> member.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If none of the requested events have occurred on any <strong>zmq_pollitem_t</strong> item,
<em>zmq_poll()</em> shall wait <em>timeout</em> microseconds for an event to occur on
any of the requested items. If the value of <em>timeout</em> is <tt>0</tt>, <em>zmq_poll()</em>
shall return immediately. If the value of <em>timeout</em> is <tt>-1</tt>, <em>zmq_poll()</em> shall
block indefinitely until a requested event has occurred on at least one
<strong>zmq_pollitem_t</strong>. The resolution of <em>timeout</em> is 1 millisecond.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The <em>events</em> and <em>revents</em> members of <strong>zmq_pollitem_t</strong> are bit masks constructed
by OR’ing a combination of the following event flags:</p></div>
<div class="dlist"><dl>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<strong>ZMQ_POLLIN</strong>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
For ØMQ sockets, at least one message may be received from the <em>socket</em> without
blocking. For standard sockets this is equivalent to the <em>POLLIN</em> flag of the
<em>poll()</em> system call and generally means that at least one byte of data may be
read from <em>fd</em> without blocking.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<strong>ZMQ_POLLOUT</strong>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
For ØMQ sockets, at least one message may be sent to the <em>socket</em> without
blocking. For standard sockets this is equivalent to the <em>POLLOUT</em> flag of the
<em>poll()</em> system call and generally means that at least one byte of data may be
written to <em>fd</em> without blocking.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<strong>ZMQ_POLLERR</strong>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
For standard sockets, this flag is passed through <em>zmq_poll()</em> to the
underlying <em>poll()</em> system call and generally means that some sort of error
condition is present on the socket specified by <em>fd</em>. For ØMQ sockets this flag
has no effect if set in <em>events</em>, and shall never be returned in <em>revents</em> by
<em>zmq_poll()</em>.
