Support JeroMQ

[chrisdinn]

For easier integration in Java applications, scala-zeromq should be adjusted to support JeroMQ (https://github.com/zeromq/jeromq). Should be a straightforward adjustment.

This would be wonderful. Definitely a +1.

@chrisdinn, do you have an idea of when you might start tackling this? Is it still on your agenda?

[chrisdinn]

I'm working on it next week, expect it to be done by Feb 23 at the latest. I would have it done sooner but I have a lot on my plate this month.

[chipsenkbeil]

Awesome! Thanks for letting me know.

[chrisdinn]

I'm still working on this, but I've having some trouble with differences in the JeroMQ polling api. I"ll keep investigating, but I'll have to push back the delivery ETA a couple of weeks. Sorry.

[chipsenkbeil]

Alright, thanks for keeping me informed.

[chipsenkbeil]

Any update on the progress for this one?

[chipsenkbeil]

Hi, were you unable to resolve the issues regarding differences in the JeroMQ polling API?

[chrisdinn]

Sorry for the delayed reply. There were some differences between the JZMQ and JeroMQ APIs that caused me some trouble.

I've since gotten distracted with other work but I intend to return to it sometime soon. Not sure exactly when, though,

Any update at this point?

Here is a working branch : https://github.com/damienlevin/scala-zeromq/tree/jeromq
Few things I noticed.

• jeromq throws UnsupportedOperationException instead of ZMQException on connection failure
• jeromq doesn't throw any Exception on binding on failure
• jeromq Poller seems to adjust the pollIndex when unregistering sockets. Not sure if that's intended or not.

I did a quick test trying to fix the jeromq poller and that seems to work, let's see what they say.
