ZmqSocket.as

With ZmqSocket.as you can talk to zmq sockets from your ActionScript code. You can connect, send and receive string or binary messages. It is not a zmq binding, but a TCP socket wrapper, with ZMTP protocol implemented to simplify communication with zmq sockets.

Features

1. Identities supported.
2. Multipart messages supported.
3. Binary and string messages supported.

Limitations

1. Maximum message size is 2^32-10 bytes (instead of 2^64-10 of the ZMTP).

Usage

1. To allow Flash to connect to a TCP socket, a socket policy file must be available on the same domain on port 843. To learn more, read http://help.adobe.com/en_US/as3/dev/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118a9b90204-7c60.html#WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118a9b90204-7c63 and http://www.lightsphere.com/dev/articles/flash_socket_policy.html The latter has a simple Perl socket server script socketpolicy.pl, which must be started by root.
