I'm afraid I have never looked closely at that client.

The C++ library should certainly be updated to avoid using
amqp_simple_rpc, and use the method-specific API functions instead.  But
that is probably not the source of the problem in itself (those
functions are generated wrappers onto amqp_simple_rpc).

basic.get and basic.consume do involve an amqp_simple_rpc call.  But
then further code is required to actually receive the message or message
deliveries.

Could you construct a minimal program that demonstrates the problem?
