TDLib C# example

This is an example of building TDLib with C++/CLI support and an example of TDLib usage from C#.

Building TDLib

Download and install Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 or later.
Download and install CMake.
Install vcpkg or update it to the latest version using vcpkg update and following received instructions.
Install zlib and openssl for using vcpkg:

C:\src\vcpkg> .\vcpkg.exe install openssl:x64-windows openssl:x86-windows zlib:x64-windows zlib:x86-windows

Download and install gperf. Add the path to gperf.exe to the PATH environment variable.
Build TDLib with CMake enabling .NET support and specifying correct path to vcpkg toolchain file:

cd <path to TDLib sources>/example/csharp
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DTD_ENABLE_DOTNET=ON -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=C:\src\vcpkg\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake ../../..
cmake --build . --config Release
cmake --build . --config Debug

Example of usage

After TDLib is built you can open and run TdExample project. It contains a simple console C# application with implementation of authorization and message sending. Just open it with Visual Studio 2015 or 2017 and run.

Also see TdExample.csproj for example of including TDLib in C# project with all native shared library dependencies.
