Description

Introduction

With package mono version 4.4.2 installed on Fedora the system is capable of compiling and running the AMQP.Net Lite shim tests. The remaining part of the puzzle is acquiring a pre-compiled AMQP.Net Lite executable library. Here's one solution.

This note is not a feature request so much as it is a blog about one way to do it.

Fetch AMQP.Net Lite 2.0.0 from NuGet

Saved as file get-lite.sh in the top level directory it may be dot sourced to pick up the definition of AMQPNETLITE_LIB_DIR.

#!/bin/bash
#
# file: get-lite.sh
#
litedir=amqpnetlite-lib-dir


if [[ ! -d $litedir ]]; then

    mkdir $litedir
    cd    $litedir

    wget https://www.nuget.org/api/v2/package/AMQPNetLite/2.0.0
    mv    2.0.0 amqpnetlite.2.0.0.nupkg
    unzip       amqpnetlite.2.0.0.nupkg

    cd ..
fi

export AMQPNETLITE_LIB_DIR=`pwd`/$litedir/lib/net45

.h4 Build qpid-interop-test including AMQP.Net Lite

Include the Lite library definition in the CMake command line

cmake -DAMQPNETLITE_LIB_DIR=${AMQPNETLITE_LIB_DIR} ...

Expect confirmation that the Lite library was picked up by CMake

-- BUILD_AMQPNETLITE = ON

Run test with the AMQP.Net Lite shims

Define the library location and specify the shims.

export AMQPNETLITE_LIB_DIR=${QPID_INTEROP_TEST_HOME}/amqpnetlite-lib-dir/lib/net45

./src/python/qpid_interop_test/amqp_types_test.py \
    --include-shim ProtonCpp \
    --include-shim ProtonPython \
    --include-shim AmqpNetLite 

Further integration

This should get you started with the AMQP.Net Lite library. I've tried a few things to auto-detect the library and use it if present. None of those attempts is yet worthy.
