* fixes #1663 Request/Reply Protocol Throughput and ScalabilityGarrett D'Amore2023-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This eliminates the req protocols use of nni_timer (and setting a single timer node per request. This was problematic because it devolves into O(n^2) as we wind up inserting timer nodes and having to scan the list for the timer node. The solution is to use a single scan - stop worrying about insertion, but instead use a coarse granularity timer (defaults to 1 second) for retries. Then do the O(n) scan just once per interval. A new option, NNG_OPT_REQ_RESENDTICK, can be used to change the tick interval for cases (like unit tests) where more fine grained timing is required.
* Language cleanups in the documentation.Garrett D'Amore2020-06-18
| | | | | | Mostly this is removal of the smart quotes, which were over-used, and misused, and could have been mistaken to be pejorative. A few other minor nits were fixed while here.

* Fix numerous spelling errrors.Garrett D'Amore2018-05-30
| | | | | | | These were found with the help of "aspell". Additionally, while reviewing the output from the spell checker, several content errors were noticed and fixed.
* fixes #495 SEE ALSO should use [align=left]Garrett D'Amore2018-05-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | fixes #494 ERRORS section should use [horizontal] These changes address some basic formatting consistency things, and ultimately (when combined with other tooling changes that are not part of this repo) lead to vastly improved layout in the printed documentation. While here we removed trailing whitespace, and did certain other minor markup tweaks.
* Markup fixes, ensuring links are colored properly.Garrett D'Amore2018-05-01
| | | | | | | | | It turns out that when creating cross references, we need to make any text styling (generally literal characters) outside of the link, to avoid having the styling override the link color. (We prefer to have links colored for ease of use.) While here a few other markup, and actual content, errors were fixed.
* fixes #334 Separate context for state machines from socketsGarrett D'Amore2018-04-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This provides context support for REQ and REP sockets. More discussion around this is in the issue itself. Optionally we would like to extend this to the surveyor pattern. Note that we specifically do not support pollable descriptors for non-default contexts, and the results of using file descriptors for polling (NNG_OPT_SENDFD and NNG_OPT_RECVFD) is undefined. In the future, it might be nice to figure out how to factor in optional use of a message queue for users who want more buffering, but we think there is little need for this with cooked mode.
* fixes #331 replace NNG_OPT_RAW option with constructorGarrett D'Amore2018-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes the raw mode something that is immutable, determined at socket construction. This is an enabling change for the separate context support coming soon. As a result, this is an API breaking change for users of the raw mode option (NNG_OPT_RAW). There aren't many of them out there. Cooked mode is entirely unaffected. There are changes to tests and documentation included.
* fixes #286 nng_pair0_open (and all others) need man pageGarrett D'Amore2018-03-17
fixes #279 consider restructuring man sections This represents a rather significant rework, and major editing effort, for the entire set of manual pages. All of the pages now have a section number in their filename; this assists in some other tooling, particularly ebook generation as every link needs to be programmatically modified when combined into an ebook. Section 5 is introduced, and populated with pages for the main types, and all options are now documented. Numerous errors have been corrected, including rewriting certain portions such as the header section of the surveyor protocol. Much work has been done to facilitate index generation, although certainly more work remains here. Every internal link within these pages now resolves; there are no more dead links. (This is required to generate Kindle format books.)
