[zeromq-dev] JeroMQ 0.3.5 - Purpose of assert on line 173 Signaler.java

[Telford Berkey]

While running load tests with JeroMQ 0.3.5, I've periodically received an assertion error for line 173 in Signaler.java.

Other than the assert, there isn't any error handling related to the number of bytes not being equal to 1.  If asserts are disabled for this class, everything runs correctly and messages are received fine.

...
            assert nbytes == 1;
...

Are there any issues with disabling asserts for Signaler.java?  If not, what is the purpose of line 173?

Regards.
