Description
This JIRA tracks initial work on a C++ binding to the Proton reactor event based model with an eye to providing an API very similar to the python client. As stated on the Proton list, the broad goals are:
to make it easy to write simple programs
natural to build out more complicated ones
very similar API to the Python client
lean and performant
The initial introduction with accompanying HelloWorld can be found at

Ongoing work is proceeding in my github account in branch cpp-work

commit 1453f57ca3f446450ef654505548f1947cb7a0f1 adds listener support, exceptions and a logging interface.
The initial implementation will provide no thread safety guarantees, but the bone structure should allow that to be added later with no API change. I still hold out hope of eventually allowing multiple threads processing separate connections concurrently.
