release_notes

FIX (untracked) NuGet package now includes XMLDocs (fszmq.xml), which were accidentally omitted from last release

IMPORTANT! fszmq is now shipped as a .NET Standard library only (currently .NET Standard 2)!
FIX (untracked) Socket.sendAll no long enumerates the input sequence multiple times (thanks to cboudereau)
NuGet package now specifies the minimum required version of its dependencies

FIX (untracked) Socket.getOptionWithBuffer, Socket.getOption fail when reading boolean options

NEW API - safer, more discoverable API for socket options using a mixture of unions, active patterns (thanks to Daniel Fabian)
socket types (as part of context API) now safer with units-of-measure (thanks to Daniel Fabian)

FIX (untracked) - corrected small issue with recieving EINTR during Context termination
FIX for Issue #121 - Socket.sendAll treats an empty container as an empty 1-frame message (patched by coconaut)
FIX for Issue #125 - Context, Socket, and Message no longer raise exceptions during finalization (though they will assert in DEBUG builds)
FIX for Issue #124 - Improved a few vague error messages
FIX for Issue #93 - Z85.encode and Z85.decode no longer fail on empty inputs

Added support for zmq_proxy_steerable; see the Proxying and ProxyingExtensions modules
Switched native handles on Context, Socket, and Message types (back) to public visibility
Added extension methods to simplify using Version from languages other than F#
Added Socket.tryRecvInto (mostly so languages other than F# don't have to acknowledge the Option<'t> type)
Added Message.configure function
Added missing socket options and other constants needed for 4.0.x completeness
Support for libzmq-4.1.x ... ZMQ.has function and Capabilities type
Support for libzmq-4.1.x ... Message.tryGetMetadata function (equivalent to zmq_msg_gets)
Support for libzmq-4.1.x ... Message.tryLoadMetadata function (for languages where the Option<'t> type is uncommon)
Support for libzmq-4.1.x ... various constants related to socket options, context options, and message options
Support for libzmq-4.1.x ... addressed errors caused by zmq_msg_t allocation size

Core types (Message, Socket, and Context) now support referential equality based on underlying native handle
Calling ToString() on core types (Message, Socket, and Context) now includes the value of the native handle
Context is now thread-safe in its managment of attached Socket instances
Added Message.isMatch for comparing contents of Message instances
Added operators (|<<) and (>>|) as directinal aliases for Message.recv
!BREAKING! Message.tryRecv now returns a boolean rather than an Option<byte[]>
!BREAKING! Message.recv now returns Unit rather than an Option<byte[]>
!BREAKING! Message.tryRecv and Message.recv now take a Message instance as an argument
!BREAKING! Order of arguments has been reversed on Message.send and Message.sendMore

Fixed bugs related to LINGER being set during Socket disposal
Context now tracks and disposes any Socket instances associated with it
Improved Message constructor usage from languages other than F#
!BREAKING! The Handle property on Message, Socket, and Context instances is now internal
Updated bundled libzmq.dll to version 4.0.6

Added methods to simplify polling a single socket for input (see tryPollIn,TryGetInput)
!BREAKING! Removed Timing module
!BREAKING! Changed poll function to DoPoll when called from other CLR languages
!BREAKING! Normalized many function names in the Message, Context, and Socket modules

NuGet package now has proper uninstaller
