Difference between LCM and...

[IasF]

Hello,

I am considering LCM, and I have read your technical report where you
compare it to IPC et. al. However, how is LCM different from something
ZeroMQ and its ilk?

Thanks

[Albert Huang]

I'm not very familiar with ZeroMQ (and I don't know what it's ilk
are), but here are a few conceptual differences.

LCM has a single publish/subscribe messaging model. ZeroMQ has more models.
LCM has a marshalling/unmarshalling layer with a type specification
language. ZeroMQ does not, and expects you to take care of
marshalling/unmarshalling on your own.
