Messaging that just works
The RabbitMQ .NET client is an implementation of an AMQP client library for C# (and, implicitly, other .NET languages), and a binding exposing AMQP services via Microsoft's Windows Communication Foundation (WCF).
The client library implements AMQP specifications version 0-8, 0-8bis (0-8 as modified by QPid for their M2 release) and 0-9 (omitting sections of the specification marked "work in progress", i.e. the Message content-class). A single binary copy of the library contains support for all three protocol variants, and code can select a variant to use at runtime. The library has been tested against
The library is open-source, and is dual-licensed under the Apache License v2 and the Mozilla Public License v1.1.
In order to compile or run the RabbitMQ .NET/C# client library, you will need an appropriate .NET SDK or runtime environment available, respectively.
The current release of the RabbitMQ .NET/C# AMQP library is 1.7.2.
