ZMQ_CTX_DESTROY(3) 0MQ Manual ZMQ_CTX_DESTROY(3) NAME zmq_ctx_destroy - terminate a 0MQ context SYNOPSIS int zmq_ctx_destroy (void *context); DESCRIPTION The zmq_ctx_destroy() function shall destroy the 0MQ context context. Context termination is performed in the following steps: 1. Any blocking operations currently in progress on sockets open within context shall return immediately with an error code of ETERM. With the exception of zmq_close(), any further operations on sockets open within context shall fail with an error code of ETERM. 2. After interrupting all blocking calls, zmq_ctx_destroy() shall block until the following conditions are satisfied: o All sockets open within context have been closed with zmq_close(). o For each socket within context, all messages sent by the application with zmq_send() have either been physically transferred to a network peer, or the socket's linger period set with the ZMQ_LINGER socket option has expired. For further details regarding socket linger behaviour refer to the ZMQ_LINGER option in zmq_setsockopt(3). This function is deprecated by zmq_ctx_term(3). RETURN VALUE The zmq_ctx_destroy() function shall return zero if successful. Otherwise it shall return -1 and set errno to one of the values defined below. ERRORS EFAULT The provided context was invalid. EINTR Termination was interrupted by a signal. It can be restarted if needed.
