IMHO the issue isn't just upgrading the Guide .. it's also the examples.
AFAICS there's a 2.1 API and a separate 3.1 API but only one Guide.
If there were a separate 3.1 Guide people responsible for bindings could
start upgrading the binding examples.
As it is there are Felix examples in the 2.1 Guide which are actually
working 3.1 code. It looks a bit weird because where the C
example says, eg:
// Connect work threads to client threads via a queue
zmq_device (ZMQ_QUEUE, clients, workers)
my code says:
// Connect work threads to client threads via a queue
var pollitems = varray (
zmq_poll_item (clients, ZMQ_POLLIN),
zmq_poll_item (workers,ZMQ_POLLIN));
while true do
C_hack::ignore$ poll(pollitems, -1.0);
if (pollitems.[0].revents \& ZMQ_POLLIN).short != 0s do
send_strings workers clients.recv_strings;
done
if (pollitems.[0].revents \& ZMQ_POLLIN).short != 0s do
send_strings clients workers.recv_strings;
done
done
