Greetings, I am currently implementing a REQ-ROUTER pattern with pyzmq and I wish to use the SNDTIMEO and RCVTIMEO options in combination with REQ_RELAXED in order to implement something similar to a lazy pirate pattern on the REQ client. It doesn't quite seem to work for a few reasons, which taken together foil my plans. Importantly, I am testing the client socket with no server running, to simulate a broken connection.
1) In order for REQ_RELAXED to work, I must call connect to reconnect the socket each time the REQ state goes bad, otherwise I cannot communicate with the server. Not a problem by itself, but, 2) The first call to the REQ socket's send method after a connect call(with broken connection): a) Ignores the SNDTIMEO option's timeout. b) Always returns successfully (None value in python) Subsequent calls to the send method behave properly. Since it always returns successfully the first time, it's hard to tell what actually happened with the send. Here's a minimal example: http://pastebin.com/tNdErEUQ I'd appreciate any suggestions as to what I'm missing or workarounds for my situation. Thanks!
