Sure. Checking that both sockets match accomplishes task, isn't it? And the thing I really do mix is name of the device, comparing to socket types. So I still propose to make all built-in types be implicit (and of course all the application specific devices must be explicitly specified). BTW, why only frontend socket type is specified in examples? >> Is there any good reason to specify "xrep" vs "rep" socket types? >> I think it's implementation defined of whether it supports request >> multiplexing or other specific features of "x" kind of socket. > > I renamed xrep/xreq to router/dealer. > If the page still shows old names. But still any practical difference between xrep and router or xreq and dealer for devices? There is no xpub/xsub sockets, is that a mistake? -- Paul _______________________________________________ zeromq-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zeromq.org/mailman/listinfo/zeromq-dev
