[zeromq-dev] Newbie questions

That should be how it's used, yes. The parameter is optional, so if you don't submit a method/function there, you will have to take care of deleting yourself.

Subject: [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
