This behaviour may be + modified using the new ZMQ_LINGER socket option; for further details + refer to the reference manual. + +* The new socket options ZMQ_FD and ZMQ_EVENTS provide a way to integrate + 0MQ sockets into existing poll/event loops. + +* Sockets may now be migrated between OS threads, as long as the + application ensures that a full memory barrier is issued. + +* The 0MQ ABI exported by libzmq.so has been formalised; DSO symbol + visibility is used on supported platforms to ensure that only public ABI + symbols are exported. The library ABI version has been set to 1.0.0 for + this release. + +* OpenPGM has been updated to version 5.0.92. This version no longer + depends on GLIB, and integration with 0MQ should be much improved. + +* zmq_poll() now honors timeouts precisely, and no longer returns if no + events are signaled. + +* Blocking calls now return EINTR if interrupted by the delivery of a + signal; this also means that language bindings which previously had + problems with handling SIGINT/^C should now work correctly. + +* The ZMQ_TYPE socket option was added; this allows retrieval of the socket + type after creation. + +* Added a ZMQ_VERSION macro to zmq.h for compile-time API version + detection. + +* The ZMQ_RECONNECT_IVL and ZMQ_BACKLOG socket options have been added. + +Bug fixes +--------- + +* Forwarder and streamer devices now handle multi-part messages correctly. + +* 0MQ no longer asserts when malformed data is received on the wire. + +* 0MQ internal timers now work correctly if the TSC jumps backwards. + +* The internal signalling functionality (mailbox) has been improved + to automatically resize socket buffers on POSIX systems. + +* Many more. + +Building +-------- + +* 0MQ now builds correctly with many more non-GCC compilers (Sun Studio, + Intel ICC, CLang). + +* AIX and HP-UX builds should work now. + +* FD_SETSIZE has been set to 1024 by default for MSVC builds. + +* Windows builds using GCC (MinGW) now work out of the box. + +Distribution +------------ + +* A simple framework for regression tests has been added, along with a few + basic self-tests. The tests can be run using "make check". + + 0MQ version 2.0.10 (Stable), released on 2010/10/15 =================================================== |
