[rabbitmq-discuss] RabbitMQ and C Interface

[Frank Gönninger]

Pieter,

sure! We're just eliminating all GNU C specific stuff and adding the required MS woodoo stuff to get a working DLL. The API as such will not be changed unless really required. So far all looks promising ... Top priority is also to not have to maintain specific MS C sources but one common source code tree with as few #ifdef insertions as possible.

Cheers
  Frank

P.S. Small progress made yesterday: Eliminated the "macro" AMQP_CHECK_RESULT...

The reason why is that Alexandre Kalendarev wrote an AMQP PHP extension which I am now maintaining, and we would love to be able to offer the extension to Windows users as well, but that would require it using the same function calls and structures as the rabbitmq-c client.
