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.
