zmq_bind(3) =========== NAME ---- zmq_bind - binds the socket to the specified address SYNOPSIS -------- 'int zmq_bind (void *s, const char *addr);' DESCRIPTION ----------- The function binds socket 's' to a particular transport. Actual semantics of the command depend on the underlying transport mechanism, however, in cases where peers connect in an asymmetric manner, 'zmq_bind' should be called first, 'zmq_connect' afterwards. Actual formats of 'addr' parameter are defined by individual transports. For a list of supported transports have a look at linkzmq:zmq[7] manual page. Note that single socket can be bound (and connected) to arbitrary number of peers using different transport mechanisms. RETURN VALUE ------------ In case of success the function returns zero. Otherwise it returns -1 and sets 'errno' to the appropriate value. ERRORS ------ *EPROTONOSUPPORT*:: unsupported protocol. *ENOCOMPATPROTO*:: protocol is not compatible with the socket type. *EADDRINUSE*:: the given address is already in use. *EADDRNOTAVAIL*:: a nonexistent interface was requested or the requested address was not local. EXAMPLE ------- ---- void *s = zmq_socket (context, ZMQ_PUB); assert (s); int rc = zmq_bind (s, "inproc://my_publisher"); assert (rc == 0); rc = zmq_bind (s, "tcp://eth0:5555"); assert (rc == 0); ---- SEE ALSO -------- linkzmq:zmq_connect[3] linkzmq:zmq_socket[3] linkzmq:zmq[7] AUTHOR ------ Martin Sustrik
