+.TH zmq_msg_init_data 3 "" "(c)2007-2009 FastMQ Inc." "0MQ User Manuals"
+.SH NAME
+zmq_msg_init \- initialises 0MQ message from the given data
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+.B typedef void (zmq_free_fn) (void *data);
+.B int zmq_msg_init_data (zmq_msg_t *msg, void *data, size_t size, zmq_free_fn *ffn);
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Initialise a message from a supplied buffer. Message isn't copied,
+instead 0MQ infrastructure takes ownership of the buffer located at address
+.IR data ,
+.IR size
+bytes long. 
+Deallocation function (
+.IR ffn
+) will be called once the data are not needed anymore. Note that deallocation
+function prototype is designed so that it complies with standard C
+.IR free
+function. When using a static constant buffer,
+.IR ffn
+may be NULL to prevent subsequent deallocation.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+In case of success the function returns zero. Otherwise it returns -1 and
+sets
+.IR errno
+to the appropriate value.
+.SH ERRORS
+No errors are defined.
+.SH EXAMPLE
+.nf
+void *data = malloc (6);
+assert (data);
+memcpy (data, "ABCDEF", 6);
+zmq_msg_t msg;
+rc = zmq_msg_init_data (&msg, data, 6, free);
+assert (rc == 0);
+rc = zmq_send (s, &msg, 0);
+assert (rc == 0);
