Hi all, I've cut a stable release for ZeroMQ 4.x.
Mainly, this should now build properly on AIX, MSVC 2008, OS/X with clang++, and Solaris. There are a few bug fixes, and a nice fix to ipc:// on Linux that allows abstract name spaces. Full list of changes below. The packages are at http://zeromq.org/intro:get-the-software as always. Thanks to everyone who helped make this release! -Pieter Ps. spoiler alert: since this is a major new release I expect there to be one or two issues that appear as people hammer it. If you are running your critical apps on ZeroMQ, please wait a week. 0MQ version 4.0.1 stable, released on 2013/10/08 ================================================ Changes ------- * Updated CURVE mechanism to track revised RFC 27 (INITIATE vouch). The INITIATE command vouch box is Box[C',S](C->S') instead of Box[C'](C->S), to reduce the risk of client impersonation, as per https://codesinchaos.wordpress.com/2012/09/09/curvecp-1/. * Fixed LIBZMQ-567, adding abstract namespaces for IPC sockets on Linux. Converts an initial strudel or "at sign" (@) in the Unix socket path to a NULL character ('\0') indicating that the socket uses the abstract namespace instead of the filesystem namespace. For instance, binding a socket to 'ipc://@/tmp/tester' will not create a file associated with the socket whereas binding to 'ipc:///tmp/tester' will create the file /tmp/tester. See issue 567 for more information. * Added zmq_z85_encode and zmq_z85_decode to core libzmq API. * Added zmq_curve_keypair to core libzmq API. * Replaced macro constants in zmq.h with enum types for user-facing constants (except ZMQ version numbers). * Bumped library ABI version to 4:0:1. Bug fixes --------- * Fixed some build/test errors on OS/X + Clang++. * Fixed LIBZMQ-565, typo in code. * Fixed LIBZMQ-566, dealer-to-router connections sometimes failing. * Fixed builds for AIX, MSVC 2008, OS/X with clang++, Solaris. * Improved CURVE handshake error handling. _______________________________________________ zeromq-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zeromq.org/mailman/listinfo/zeromq-dev
