D-Bus Sharp: Lightweight IPC for .NET
dbus-sharp is a C# implementation of D-Bus, the small message bus with a big appetite.
D-Bus is an inter-process communication framework that lets applications interface with the system event bus as well as allowing them to talk to one another in a peer-to-peer configuration.
Status
This is currently at an early stage of development and is not expected to work yet.
However it is hoped that it will soon provide a tested, high-performance bridge to and from all systems that are exposed via D-Bus, regardless of programming language, UI toolkit or license.
The code was written and is maintained by Alp Toker <alp@atoker.com>
It is a clean-room implementation based on the D-Bus Specification Version 0.11 and study of the wire protocol of existing tools.
It aims for compatibility with Mono and Microsoft .NET frameworks supporting the 2.0 profile. Backward compatibility with 1.0 will not be a consideration.
