[zeromq-dev] bind vs connect for ZMQ_PUB socket

[Chris Wong]

In the documentation of pub/sub multicast example,

http://www.zeromq.org/area:docs-v20#toc13

Both PUB and SUB socket always have zmq_connect call.

In perf/c/local_thr.c and perf/c/remote_thr.c, the SUB socket always call zmq_bind and the PUB socket always call connect.

In the tcp PUB/SUB example in the documentation, PUB socket calls bind while SUB socket calls connect.

It's getting very confusing. :-)  Can someone help clarify the semantics behind zmq_bind and zmq_connect?  I thought they were close to the socket API, now I'm not so sure.

Thanks
Chris
