Open a new Context to be used with a Socket. This function is a performance
variant of context, designed to wrap a socket in a function
argument when calling request or reply.
Arguments
- socket
a Socket.
Value
An external pointer.
Details
External pointers created by this function are unclassed, hence
methods for contexts such as close will not work (use
reap instead). Otherwise they function identically to a
Context when passed to all messaging functions.
Examples
s <- socket("req", listen = "inproc://nanonext")
r <- request(.context(s), "request data")
close(s)
