Hi David,

Thanks for your reply.

Gone through your message, but I am still not able to figure out the API to
be used for add & retrieve metadata in the message.

Do anyone know how to add/retrieve the metadata  in/from the message?

Also what all properties are supported in zmq_msg_set()

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Bharat
