.SH "NAME"
zmq_msg_init_buffer \- initialise 0MQ message with buffer copy
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
\fBint zmq_msg_init_buffer (zmq_msg_t \fR\fB\fI*msg\fR\fR\fB, const void \fR\fB\fI*buf\fR\fR\fB, size_t \fR\fB\fIsize\fR\fR\fB);\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
The \fIzmq_msg_init_buffer()\fR function shall allocate any resources required to store a message \fIsize\fR bytes long and initialise the message object referenced by \fImsg\fR to represent a copy of the buffer referenced by the \fIbuf\fR and \fIsize\fR arguments\&.
.sp
The implementation shall choose whether to store message content on the stack (small messages) or on the heap (large messages)\&.

Never access \fIzmq_msg_t\fR members directly, instead always use the \fIzmq_msg\fR family of functions\&.

The functions \fIzmq_msg_init()\fR, \fIzmq_msg_init_data()\fR, \fIzmq_msg_init_buffer()\fR and \fIzmq_msg_init_buffer()\fR are mutually exclusive\&. Never initialise the same \fIzmq_msg_t\fR twice\&.
