Has anyone wrapped the rsync algorithm in C#-callable package?

[John]

Hi,

I'd like to use the rsync algorithm in an application I'm building.
Has anyone done any work to port from C to C# or to package up the
algorithm so it can be used in a .NET application?

Thanks,
John

John,

Is there an implementation using functions or COM objects? If so, then
you can use these through the P/Invoke layer, or through COM interop. If
these are not available, then you will have to code it yourself. If the C
code is available, then you should be able to compile it yourself into a
DLL, and then access that through the P/Invoke layer.

Hope this helps.
