Software updates by Troy D. Hanson

I’ve posted my ØMQ zcontrol control port library to GitHub tonight. This makes it easy to embed an interactive control port in your ØMQ (v2 or v3)-based C programs.

Example of using a control port

% ./zcon -e tcp://127.0.0.1:3333
Connecting to tcp://127.0.0.1:3333.
zcon> help
help                 this text
version              version info
shutdown             shutdown server
quit                 close session

zcon> version
Current 0MQ version is 3.0.3

zcon> quit

You can add commands, for example — to control or monitor your program — using the zcontrol API. Use the zcon client shown above to run these commands interactively. Or, you can invoke them from any ØMQ req socket. I’ve used zcontrol both ways, e.g. manually and from a PHP script.

For further information please see,

• the zcontrol documentation: http://troydhanson.github.com/zcontrol/
• or git clone git://github.com/troydhanson/zcontrol.git
