[zeromq-dev] Newbie questions

Hello list,

I'm a complete newbie in the use and application of Zeromq so I am sure 
my questions will sound quite inane and downright stupid.  I apologise 
in advance.  I stumbled on ZeroMQ early this week while googling for a 
decent message system that is'nt implemented in Java. I use 
FPC(FreePascal) and Lazarus (both Open Source products) as my 
programming platform  and intend to write a binding as well as 
component/s to enable the use of ZeroMQ with FPC.  Unfortunately, I am 
not very C proficient, so I am also doing a crash course in C/C++ at the 
moment.  I have already started the port and I'm ironing out the 
wrinkles in my interface unit .....So much for the intro, here's my 
question:

 From the api documentation on the web it seems that the variable ffn of 
type zmq_free_fn as defined in the parameters of *zmq_msg_init_data* is 
a user supplied function and one needs to pass a pointer to a function 
that will free the message data.  Is this correct?

Regards
