Get message property
Usage
int zmq_msg_get (zmq_msg_t *message, int property);
Overview
The zmq_msg_get() function shall return the value for the property specified by the property argument for the message pointed to by the message argument.
The following properties can be retrieved with the zmq_msg_get() function:
ZMQ_MORE
Indicates that there are more message frames to follow after the message.
ZMQ_SRCFD
Returns the file descriptor of the socket the message was read from. This allows application to retrieve the remote endpoint via getpeername(2). Be aware that the respective socket might be closed already, reused even. Currently only implemented for TCP sockets.

The zmq_msg_get() function shall return the value for the property if successful. Otherwise it shall return -1 and set errno to one of the values defined below.
Errors
EINVAL
The requested property is unknown.
Examples
Receiving a multi-frame message.
zmq_msg_t frame;
while (true) {
// Create an empty 0MQ message to hold the message frame
int rc = zmq_msg_init (&frame);
assert (rc == 0);
// Block until a message is available to be received from socket
rc = zmq_msg_recv (socket, &frame, 0);
assert (rc != -1);
if (zmq_msg_get (&frame, ZMQ_MORE))
fprintf (stderr, "more\n");
else {
fprintf (stderr, "end\n");
break;
}
zmq_msg_close (&frame);
}
