[zeromq-dev] What ZMQ socket state is maintained upon disconnect?

[Daniel Krikun]

Hi,

Automatic reconnection only considers topology (obviously it is implemented
on the client side).
As far as I remember, subscriptions are preserved on reconnect (because it
is a socket option), and message queues - I think, they are destroyed,
unless socket identity is set.
