As simple as this operation seems I can't find any documentation regarding how to receive a multipart message using ZMQ (Jeromq). I checked The Guide but it only contains C code with this info and it seems that I'm supposed to receive messages the same way no matter what kind of message I'm receiving.
In reality what happens is that I receive the multipart message in two messages with this code:
while (running.get()) {
items.poll();
if (items.pollin(0)) {
ByteArray message = receiver.recv(0);
System.out.println("Received " + String(message, Charset.forName("UTF-8")));
}
}
The "Received" part will get printed twice if I send a multipart message like this:
publisher.sendMore(message.key);
publisher.send(objectMapper.writeValueAsString(message.data));
What am I doing wrong?
Edit: I know there is a language selector below the examples but this particular problem is not present in any of the examples only explained inline with C
code.
Edit
I tried to explore the API and found the hasReceiveMore()
method. I tried using it, but it didn't work, I ended up with an infinite loop with this code:
List<String> parts = new ArrayList<>();
while(receiver.hasReceiveMore()) {
parts.add(receiver.recvStr());
}
Your code has to actively assume each message to might have been composed as a multipart-message (Zero-Warranties in this, the less a-priori) and actively check for the presence of the
ZMQ_RECVMORE
flag, after each subsequent.recv()
-method call, until the.getsockopt( ZMQ_RECVMORE )
-method says otherwise.JeroMQ might have translated this published native-API into some other utlity methods, so best re-read the JeroMQ-source code to find, where this native-API multipart-message handling-"protocol" gets wrapped into the JeroMQ-tooling.
