.SH "NAME"
zmq_ctx_shutdown \- shutdown a 0MQ context
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
\fBint zmq_ctx_shutdown (void \fR\fB\fI*context\fR\fR\fB);\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
The \fIzmq_ctx_shutdown()\fR function shall shutdown the 0MQ context \fIcontext\fR\&.
.sp
Context shutdown will cause any blocking operations currently in progress on sockets open within \fIcontext\fR to return immediately with an error code of ETERM\&. With the exception of \fIzmq_close()\fR, any further operations on sockets open within \fIcontext\fR shall fail with an error code of ETERM\&. No further sockets can be created using \fIzmq_socket()\fR on a context for which \fIzmq_ctx_shutdown()\fR has been called, it will return and set errno to ETERM\&.
.sp
This function is optional, client code is still required to call the \fBzmq_ctx_term\fR(3) function to free all resources allocated by zeromq\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.sp
The \fIzmq_ctx_shutdown()\fR function shall return zero if successful\&. Otherwise it shall return \-1 and set \fIerrno\fR to one of the values defined below\&.
.SH "ERRORS"

\fBEFAULT\fR
.RS 4
