[zeromq-dev] Edge-triggered polling vs Level-triggered. Which one ZMQ is using? Why?

[artemv zmq]

Hi Pieter

Not sure if it is related or not, but I experience an issue with using
ZMQ.Poller and java socket (SelectableChannel). I.e. poller api itself
allows me to register SelectableChannel on poller (for POLLIN),
but combination isn't workable -- poller does render presence of incoming
traffic only once.. ((
