Dear list, I am new to the list so I hope I'm not asking a question already asked.
I am in the process of integrating zeromq in an embedded solution using a uclibc toolchain that I cannot customise, and which has, as the majority of uclibc toolchains (this is configurable when creating the toolchain AFAIK), the IPv6 support disabled. Thus, simply said, I cannot compile zeromq library v3.2.4 with that toolchain. I noticed the only place where it causes a problem is cleanly located in tcp_address.cpp, and is never reached while ipv4only option remains set. So I am asking myself and now you all, if it was technically possible to make the ipv6 resolution code conditionally compiled depending on the toolchain capabilities without breaking the zmq API/ABI/protocol/whatever matters. I tend to think it is feasible, and that would greatly help in spreading zeromq on embedded platforms, where it can be very useful as you can guess. What do you think about it? I am not sure to be good enough to cook a proof-of-concept patch but I could try, since this is quite blocking for me right now.
