.SH "NAME"
zmq_ctx_set \- set context options
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
\fBint zmq_ctx_set (void \fR\fB\fI*context\fR\fR\fB, int \fR\fB\fIoption_name\fR\fR\fB, int \fR\fB\fIoption_value\fR\fR\fB);\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
The \fIzmq_ctx_set()\fR function shall set the option specified by the \fIoption_name\fR argument to the value of the \fIoption_value\fR argument\&.
.sp
The \fIzmq_ctx_set()\fR function accepts the following options:
.SS "ZMQ_BLOCKY: Fix blocky behavior"
.sp
By default the context will block, forever, on a zmq_ctx_term call\&. The assumption behind this behavior is that abrupt termination will cause message loss\&. Most real applications use some form of handshaking to ensure applications receive termination messages, and then terminate the context with \fIZMQ_LINGER\fR set to zero on all sockets\&. This setting is an easier way to get the same result\&. When \fIZMQ_BLOCKY\fR is set to false, all new sockets are given a linger timeout of zero\&. You must still close all sockets before calling zmq_ctx_term\&.

.SS "ZMQ_IO_THREADS: Set number of I/O threads"
.sp
The \fIZMQ_IO_THREADS\fR argument specifies the size of the 0MQ thread pool to handle I/O operations\&. If your application is using only the \fIinproc\fR transport for messaging you may set this to zero, otherwise set it to at least one\&. This option only applies before creating any sockets on the context\&.

.SS "ZMQ_THREAD_SCHED_POLICY: Set scheduling policy for I/O threads"
.sp
The \fIZMQ_THREAD_SCHED_POLICY\fR argument sets the scheduling policy for internal context\(cqs thread pool\&. This option is not available on windows\&. Supported values for this option can be found in sched\&.h file, or at \m[blue]\fBhttp://man7\&.org/linux/man\-pages/man2/sched_setscheduler\&.2\&.html\fR\m[]\&. This option only applies before creating any sockets on the context\&.

.sp
The \fIZMQ_THREAD_PRIORITY\fR argument sets scheduling priority for internal context\(cqs thread pool\&. This option is not available on windows\&. Supported values for this option depend on chosen scheduling policy\&. Details can be found in sched\&.h file, or at \m[blue]\fBhttp://man7\&.org/linux/man\-pages/man2/sched_setscheduler\&.2\&.html\fR\m[]\&.

.SS "ZMQ_MAX_MSGSZ: Set maximum message size"
.sp
The \fIZMQ_MAX_MSGSZ\fR argument sets the maximum allowed size of a message sent in the context\&. You can query the maximal allowed value with \fBzmq_ctx_get\fR(3) using the \fIZMQ_MAX_MSGSZ\fR option\&.

.SS "ZMQ_IPV6: Set IPv6 option"
.sp
The \fIZMQ_IPV6\fR argument sets the IPv6 value for all sockets created in the context from this point onwards\&. A value of 1 means IPv6 is enabled, while 0 means the socket will use only IPv4\&. When IPv6 is enabled, a socket will connect to, or accept connections from, both IPv4 and IPv6 hosts\&.
