In C we have Sockets and descriptors, it is possible to just take one of these and hand them over to a Thread, this makes it possible that you can accept incoming connections and give the work to a Thread you like and the Thread can send by itself the response back.
My question is, how can I achieve this with ZeroMQ? With Request-Reply pattern it seems i cannot send and receive asynchronously, the responses have to be in sequence, my goal would be to have multiple clients to a single server, sending responses not in sequence.
I had a look at the Request Response pattern but the API clearly states that using that Socket with multiple Threads is a bad idea. Maybe i have missed something or ZeroMQ is more intelligent than i know of. If you need any further information just post a comment and i will do my best to give the information.
I had also a look at the provided examples: Code Examples
Here is the Socket description: ZMQ-Socket
After days of searching, a friendly person in IRC in the zeromq channel provided help for me.
An updated Link in case somebody is still looking for that. Should be persistant!

This example really works well, its easy to adapt, i have used boost threads with a threadpool.
