SrtSharp for .net7 and Android?

[forlayo]

I am planning to use SRT and your wrapper would be very useful, the problem is that's just compiled for .net standard 2.0. Could you please compile it for .net7 and .net7-android?

If you've plans on opensourcing the wrapper I am more than happy to contribute.

Thank you for showing interest in using the SRT wrapper. I'd like to mention that .NET Standard is designed to be compatible across different .NET implementations. According to the MSDN documentation, .NET Standard 2.0 is compatible with .NET 7 and .NET 7-Android.

Given this compatibility, may I ask why you would need a separate platform-specific compilation?

Oh, I was thinking that I needed to create a .net7 compiled and other for android to provide the .so and .dll on each plafform. But if that's not needed then sorry I'll have a look :)

I am trying to use SrtSharp wrapper with .NET MAUI, in Windows it works well so far but then compiling for Android but it has a crash on any method call. I suppose as it couldn't found the .so library.

Having a look on SrtSharp package it looks like it has runtime just for linux-x64 and win-x64 but not for android (armv7 and x86).

It is enough if If add these .so by hand in my project ? If so, from where should I compile srt to have it compatible with your wrapper?

Once again, happy on contributing with you if you've plans on opensourcing the wrapper :)

I see. First of all, .NET Standard is indeed compatible with .NET 7 Android. However, SrtSharp is a facade for the original SRT library created by SWIG, and it relies on runtime for specific platforms (Linux, Windows). All the source code is public and available; we even created a pull request to the official repo Haivision/srt#2577.

Currently, we are building this package internally using our CI pipelines. We are not actively developing for the Android platform at the moment. I will look into the feasibility of adding support for another platform, but the probability is quite low at this time.
