WireAPI: Shared libraries or Dlls

Just downloaded OpenAMQ 1.2c. Had a look at the WireAPI, but the build only provides static libraries.
There are other languages out there that have a C interface. For those languages it would be nice to have your API accessible through shared libraries (Unix) or Dlls (Windows).

Yes, this is something we will make at some stage. It requires some improvements to our build system, but as you point out, it's useful for linking with other languages. We also have a SWIG api in development, will be packaged and released later.

Can you tell us what languages you are using? Mostly we need users to tell us their priorities… we prefer to make nothing that's not actually going to be used by someone.

I am using .NET (C#). I have experience with interfacing to C libraries from C#.
I am also sometimes still using Delphi, which quite naturally can interface to C.

Forgot to mention: a C# API wrapper can be used from any .NET language.
