ZMQ_UNBIND(3)			   0MQ Manual			   ZMQ_UNBIND(3)

NAME
     zmq_unbind - Stop accepting connections on a socket

SYNOPSIS
     int zmq_unbind (void *socket, const char *endpoint);

DESCRIPTION
     The zmq_unbind() function shall unbind a socket specified by the socket ar-
     gument from the endpoint specified by the endpoint argument.

     Additionally  the	incoming message queue associated with the endpoint will
     be discarded. This means that after unbinding an endpoint it is possible to
     received messages originating from that same endpoint if they were  already
     present in the incoming message queue before unbinding.

     The endpoint argument is as described in zmq_bind(3)

   Unbinding wild-card address from a socket
     When  wild-card * endpoint (described in zmq_tcp(7), zmq_ipc(7), zmq_udp(7)
     and zmq_vmci(7)) was used in zmq_bind(), the caller should  use  real  end-
     point obtained from the ZMQ_LAST_ENDPOINT socket option to unbind this end-
     point from a socket.

RETURN VALUE
     The  zmq_unbind()	function  shall  return zero if successful. Otherwise it
     shall return -1 and set errno to one of the values defined below.

ERRORS
     EINVAL
	 The endpoint supplied is invalid.

     ETERM
	 The 0MQ context associated with the specified socket was terminated.

     ENOTSOCK
	 The provided socket was invalid.

     ENOENT
	 The endpoint supplied was not previously bound.

EXAMPLES
     Unbind a subscriber socket from a TCP transport.

	 /* Create a ZMQ_SUB socket */
	 void *socket = zmq_socket (context, ZMQ_SUB);
	 assert (socket);
	 /* Connect it to the host server001, port 5555 using a TCP transport */
	 rc = zmq_bind (socket, "tcp://127.0.0.1:5555");
	 assert (rc == 0);
	 /* Disconnect from the previously connected endpoint */
	 rc = zmq_unbind (socket, "tcp://127.0.0.1:5555");
	 assert (rc == 0);

     Unbind wild-card * binded socket.

	 /* Create a ZMQ_SUB socket */
	 void *socket = zmq_socket (context, ZMQ_SUB);
	 assert (socket);
	 /* Bind it to the system-assigned ephemeral port using a TCP transport */
	 rc = zmq_bind (socket, "tcp://127.0.0.1:*");
	 assert (rc == 0);
	 /* Obtain real endpoint */
	 const size_t buf_size = 32;
	 char buf[buf_size];
	 rc = zmq_getsockopt (socket, ZMQ_LAST_ENDPOINT, buf, (size_t *)&buf_size);
	 assert (rc == 0);
	 /* Unbind socket by real endpoint */
	 rc = zmq_unbind (socket, buf);
	 assert (rc == 0);

NOTE
     Note that while the implementation is similar to zmq_disconnect(), the  se-
     mantics are different and the two functions should not be used interchange-
     ably. Bound sockets should be unbound, and connected sockets should be dis-
     connected.
