I couldn't find a lot of docs on this stuff so I experimented a bit to
try learning about ZMQ_STREAM. Here are two echo servers (one a simple
program the other as an actor
https://github.com/gregoryyoung/zmq-stream-echo/blob/master/src/echoactorserver.c)
I was curious about this question so added this functionality (exit closes now).
The main difference I see in my code is you still set:
server.send(empty, ZMQ_SNDMORE );
ZMQ_SENDMORE which I don't think you really want to be sending more?
Cheers,
Greg
