== Differences between C and Octave bindings ==
 +
 +
The Octave binding is a subset of the C binding of the ZeroMQ library.
 +
 +
Major differences are:
 +
 +
1. The octave binding creates a single zeromq context that is used for all zeromq sockets. In the C bindings, the programmer must create a context and use it during socket creation.
 +
 +
2. only limited zmq_getsockopt and zmq_setsockopt is currently implemented.
 +
 +
3. functions mostly return true or false for whether they succeeded or failed. In the C binding, 0 signififed success.
 +
 +
== The functions ==
 +
 +
zmq_bind
 +
          Bind a zeromq socket to a endpoint.
 +
 +
zmq_close
 +
          Close a zeromq socket.
 +
 +
zmq_connect
 +
          Connect a zeromq socket to a endpoint
 +
 +
zmq_errno
 +
          Get system errno value.
 +
 +
zmq_getsockopt
 +
          Get current value of a zeromq socket option.
 +
 +
zmq_poll
 +
          Poll a socket or sockets for a timeout or incoming data
 +
          available.
 +
 +
zmq_recv
 +
          Attempt to read data from a zeromq socket.
 +
 +
zmq_send
 +
          Attempt to send data from a zeromq socket.
 +
 +
zmq_setsockopt
 +
          Set a zeromq socket option.
 +
 +
zmq_strerror
 +
          Get the last zmq error string.
 +
 +
zmq_unbind
 +
          Unbind a previously bound zeromq socket.
 +
 +
zmq_version
 +
          Get the zeromq library version numbers.
 +
 +

 +
 +
The client sends a "Hello" to the server which responds back "World". No error checking or data validation is done in the example.
