[zeromq-dev] Subscribing in JAVA api

[Robin Weisberg]

Oops I meant 

Instead of 
 int rc = zmq_setsockopt (s, option, value, strlen (value));
maybe do
int rc = zmq_setsockopt (s, option, value, env-> GetStringUTFLength (optval));

But what if the C applications were publishing on 2 topics "animals.mammals\0" and "animals.mammals.kitty\0" and I wanted ONLY the ones on "animals.mammals\0"? I would have to change all the existing c++ listeners and publishers to use a different delimeter e.g. "animals.mammals|" and "animals.mammals.kitty|" because the java api doesn't handle specifying "\0" right?

Looking at the JNI api I see a there are methods like GetStringUTFLength.

Instead of 
 int rc = zmq_setsockopt (s, option, value, strlen (value));
maybe do
int rc = zmq_setsockopt (s, option, value, env->GetStringUTFChars (optval, NULL));

And then you can subscribe using "animals.mammals\u0000" in the java code?

I'm happy to try this out if we agree it's a better approach.

Hi Chris,

Nope, you should do it this way:

zmq_setsockopt (s, ZMQ_SUBSCRIBE, "animals.mammals", 15);

Note that the data passed to the socket option do not contain the 
terminal zero.

Any message starting with "animals.mammals" will match the subscription.

> What's the Java way of doing that?

s.setsockopt (ZMQ.SUBSCRIBE, "animals.mammals");
