.TH zmq_flush 3 "" "(c)2007-2009 FastMQ Inc." "0MQ User Manuals"
.SH NAME
zmq_flush \- flushes pre-sent messages to the socket
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B int zmq_flush (void *s);
.SH DESCRIPTION
Flushes all the pre-sent messages - i.e. those that have been sent with
ZMQ_NOFLUSH flag - to the socket. This functionality improves performance in
cases where several messages are sent during a single business operation.
It should not be used as a transaction - ACID properties are not guaranteed.
Note that calling
.IR zmq_send
without ZMQ_NOFLUSH flag automatically flushes all previously pre-sent messages.
.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
.IP "\fBENOTSUP\fP"
function isn't supported by particular socket type.
.IP "\fBEFSM\fP"
function cannot be called at the moment, because socket is not in the
approprite state.
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
rc = zmq_send (s, &msg1, ZMQ_NOFLUSH);
assert (rc == 0);
rc = zmq_send (s, &msg2, ZMQ_NOFLUSH);
assert (rc == 0);
rc = zmq_flush (s);
assert (rc == 0);
