Kafka C++ Windows Client for 0.8 Releases

Dear all,

I am writing to this list to check if there is any new progress concerning 0.8 Windows C++ clients and if there are experiences we can share.

My company (we are in the context of performance advertising networks) is using Kafka 0.8 as the backbone for the event infrastructure. As the core components are running with C++/Windows, I have to deploy C++/Windows clients for producing Kafka events. For the moment we are using a proprietary implementation based on some old open source code based on C++ boost libraries . We had to port the package to Windows and adapt it to support the 0.8 Kafka protocol.

If someone is working in the same context I would like to seek the possibility to exchange knowledge about known issues, and perhaps also to share code in the future.

Kind regards

Tianning

If you are okay to use Cygwin then librdkafka might be of interest:

That would be fantastic.  How long will that take you?  Would you put it up
on github?

Hi, 

we build our impl. using microsoft visual studio 2010 (migration to 2012 is under way). Cygwin not used. 
If useful I will separate generic part from our proprietary resources/Apis and make it public, 

KR

 Curious- does your impl
 require Cygwin?  If not, I'd love to use it
