[zeromq-dev] Can ZeroMQ clients function within a single thread only?

[Pieter Hintjens]

Hi Seref,

Can you explain the actual reason that you're constrained to using a
single thread? The short answer is no, you always need multiple
threads to use 0MQ. The longer answer is that if your environment is
very constrained you can write your own TCP code that can talk to 0MQ
networks. There are examples here:
https://github.com/hintjens/zmtplib. However you're going to lose
everything except basic message send/recv functionality.
