Will there be Windows support for libnetconf2?

Open IamPatrik opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

Hi, I was looking at this project, as it is supposed to be a great NETCONF library. This is probably true, but when looking at it I realized it is not multi-platform. From CMakeLists.txt

if(NOT UNIX) message(FATAL_ERROR "Only *nix like systems are supported.") endif()

Multi-platform is very important for the project I work with. Is this planned to be implemented any time soon or are there no plans to do this at the moment?

Hi Patrik, unfortunately, libnetconf2 is meant only for *nix systems exactly as the error says and there are no plans to port it. It would not be trivial and I am afraid major parts of the code would not be usable/would have to be completely rewritten.

@IamPatrik did you find an alternative? I know of many other on the hunt for at least a client library for windows

This is a .NET library that .NET developer can use as a NETCONF client and issue NETCONF rpc commands https://github.com/sshnet/SSH.NET
