sockopt::rcvtimeo argument too small
I'm updating legacy code to use the new socket options, and ran into an issue:
error: no matching function for call to 'zmq::socket_t::set(const zmq::sockopt::rcvtimeo_t& std::chrono::duration<long int, std::ratio<1, 1000> >::rep)'
The calling user code is like this:
void Send(zmq::socket_t& sock, std::chrono::milliseconds timeout) {
sock.set(zmq::sockopt::rcvtimeo, timeout.count());
...
}
A richer interface would accept a (templated?) std::chrono::duration, but the specific issue here is the definition of sockopt::rcvtimeo uses int and template substitution fails when provided a long int (std::chrono::milliseconds::rep).
Simply changing the definition of rcvtimeo to take a long int breaks code like
sock.set(zmq::sockopt::rcvtimeo, 42);
and the enumeration-as-helper-type pattern precludes overloads. I don't see a good solution to this issue
