Rust zeromq bindings.

Rust Zeromq bindings.

To build, just run rustc lib.rs. rust-zmq is a pretty straight forward port of the C API into Rust:

extern crate zmq;

#[link(name = "zmq")] // link against the C library
extern {}

fn main() {
	let mut ctx = zmq::Context::new();

	let mut socket = match ctx.socket(zmq::REQ) {
	  Ok(socket) => { socket },
	  Err(e) => { fail!(e.to_str()) }
	};

	match socket.connect("tcp://127.0.0.1:1234") {
	  Ok(()) => (),
	  Err(e) => fail!(e.to_str())
	}

	match socket.send_str("hello world!", 0) {
	  Ok(()) => (),
	  Err(e) => fail!(e.to_str())
	}
}
