Hi, I have been using ZMQ_PAIR recently for a one to one data feed over TCP. I know the documentation doesn't explicitly say this should work (over TCP) but for the most part it does. Last week I came across a situation where the bind end of the connection had reconnection issues if no data is flowing during the bounce of the TCP connection.
Before I go to the trouble of recreating/documenting the behavior (I won't call it a bug at this point) I want to know if there is support in the zeromq community for ZMQ_PAIR to be supported over TCP? As far as I can tell the documentation doesn't explicitly say either way. I know there are other patterns (PUB/SUB, PUSH/PULL) that support TCP but they are not as simple as the ZMQ_PAIR where you want a strict bi directional one to one relationship. If it's the case that ZMQ_PAIR is only to be used over inproc then maybe the connect/bind should fail for anything other than inproc so people don't make mistakes and assume it's going to work. Thanks James
