README
**ZeroMQ with Boost under VisualStudio 2015**
This repository contains a VS 2015 Solution with four projects based on ZeroMQ examples:
a) **ZeroMQ Client/Server example** (server and client projects)
b) **ZeroMQ Publish/Subscribe example** (server and client projects)
The PubSub example uses the boost libraries for message parsing.
**Compiling**
To compile the projects you'll need to compile ZeroMQ and checkout some sources. The predefined settings in the VS-Solution will expand to several paths. So take care of putting them into these ENV-variables:
ZMQ_HOME: sources from zeromq/libzmq
ZMQ_CPP_HEADERS: sources from zeromq/cppzmq
ZMQ_LIBS: binaries compiled from ZMQ_HOME directory
ZMQ_LIBSODIUM: sources from jedisct1/libsodium (IMPORTANT: libsodium must go inside the libzmq-root directory so the ZMQ-lib can be compiled with libsodium support)
ZMQ_ZGUIDE: sources from booksbyus/zguide
Additionally:
* Compile *libzmq* by opening the solution under *builds/msvc/vs2015* or via batch-files under *builds/msvc/build*. As already mentioned, if you want to have libsodium support _you must checkout_ its sources inside the root directory of libzmq _before_ you compile libzmq!
* Compile *libsodium* by using the solution under *builds/msvc/vs2015* or via batch files under *builds/msvc/build*.
* Put the paths to the DLLs into their respective env variables (ZMQ_LIBS & ZMQ_LIBSODIUM)
This is how the path to **ZMQ-Sources* looks like on my machine:
Here's the path to the **compiled Libsodium-binary** (notice the root directory that belongs to ZeroMQ):
* Additionally insert the base path of *zguide* where the C++ helper-headers reside. This is not mandatory but these header files contain many helpful functions & macros.
* And this is how we reference them in our projects:
* ZMQ-Binaries have their own env-variable, of course. Depending on what architecture and toolset are being used the predefined variables in VS2015 will expand to their x86/x64 & Debug/Release versions.
* Here's how it looks like in VS-Project Properties:
* The ZeroMQ **static library** is also in the list of additional dependencies.
* To properly run client/server apps based on ZeroMQ we need the *ZeroMQ-DLL* for **dynamic binding**. There's already a *Post-Build-Event* that'll be executed after each successful build:
Now, compile the sources and let ZeroMQ fly :smile:
