XS_INPROC(7) Crossroads I/O Manual XS_INPROC(7)NAMExs_inproc - local in-process (inter-thread) transport
SYNOPSIS
The in-process transport passes messages via memory directly between
threads sharing a single context.
ADDRESSING
A Crossroads address string consists of two parts as follows:
transport://endpoint. The transport part specifies the underlying
transport protocol to use, and for the in-process transport shall be
set to inproc. The meaning of the endpoint part for the in-process
transport is defined below.
Assigning a local address to a socket
When assigning a local address to a socket using xs_bind() with the
inproc transport, the endpoint shall be interpreted as an arbitrary
string identifying the name to create. The name must be unique within
the context associated with the socket and may be up to 256 characters
in length. No other restrictions are placed on the format of the name.
Connecting a socket
When connecting a socket to a peer address using xs_connect() with the
inproc transport, the endpoint shall be interpreted as an arbitrary
string identifying the name to connect to. The name must have been
previously created by assigning it to at least one socket within the
same context as the socket being connected.
WIRE FORMAT
Not applicable.
EXAMPLES
Assigning a local address to a socket.
/* Assign the in-process name "#1" */
rc = xs_bind(socket, "inproc://#1");
assert (rc != -1);
/* Assign the in-process name "my-endpoint" */
rc = xs_bind(socket, "inproc://my-endpoint");
assert (rc != -1);
Connecting a socket.
/* Connect to the in-process name "#1" */
rc = xs_connect(socket, "inproc://#1");
assert (rc != -1);
/* Connect to the in-process name "my-endpoint" */
rc = xs_connect(socket, "inproc://my-endpoint");
assert (rc != -1);
