ZMQ::FFI
version agnostic Perl bindings for ØMQ using ffi
ZMQ::FFI exposes a high level, transparent, OO interface to zeromq independent of the underlying libzmq version. Where semantics differ, it will dispatch to the appropriate backend for you. As it uses ffi, there is no dependency on XS or compilation.
ZMQ::FFI is implemented using FFI::Platypus.
EXAMPLES
send/recv
use v5.10;
use ZMQ::FFI;
use ZMQ::FFI::Constants qw(ZMQ_REQ ZMQ_REP);
my $endpoint = "ipc://zmq-ffi-$$";
my $ctx = ZMQ::FFI->new();

$s1->connect($endpoint);
my $s2 = $ctx->socket(ZMQ_REP);
$s2->bind($endpoint);
$s1->send('ohhai');
say $s2->recv();
# ohhai
pub/sub
use v5.10;
use ZMQ::FFI;
use ZMQ::FFI::Constants qw(ZMQ_PUB ZMQ_SUB);

}
# specific topics

}

}
multipart
use v5.10;

nonblocking
use v5.10;

};

specifying versions
use ZMQ::FFI;
# 2.x context
my $ctx = ZMQ::FFI->new( soname => 'libzmq.so.1' );
