[zeromq-dev] empty packet if REQ

[Ilja Golshtein]

Martin,
very interesting.

Could you please describe in more detailed way in which cases these extra identities are appended.


(1)                  (2)                (3)

REQ-send                          XREP-recv

ID1                                     ID2
null                                     ID1
payload                               null
                                          payload


The question is what should be done at (2) in 0mq API terms to have extra identity added.


Thanks.
