+.SH "NAME"
+zmq_msg_copy \- copy content of a message to another message
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.sp
+\fBint zmq_msg_copy (zmq_msg_t \fR\fB\fI*dest\fR\fR\fB, zmq_msg_t \fR\fB\fI*src\fR\fR\fB);\fR
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.sp
+The \fIzmq_msg_copy()\fR function shall copy the message object referenced by \fIsrc\fR to the message object referenced by \fIdest\fR\&. The original content of \fIdest\fR, if any, shall be released\&.

+.sp
+The implementation may choose not to physically copy the message content, rather to share the underlying buffer between \fIsrc\fR and \fIdest\fR\&. Avoid modifying message content after a message has been copied with \fIzmq_msg_copy()\fR, doing so can result in undefined behaviour\&. If what you need is an actual hard copy, allocate a new message using \fIzmq_msg_init_size()\fR and copy the message content using \fImemcpy()\fR\&.
