<h1>Bindings for other languages</h1>
<p>Libvirt comes with bindings to support other languages than
pure <strong>C</strong>. First the headers embeds the necessary declarations to
allow direct access from <strong>C++</strong> code, but also we have bindings for
higher level kind of languages:</p>
<ul><li><strong>Python</strong>: Libvirt comes with direct support for the Python language
(just make sure you installed the libvirt-python package if not
compiling from sources). See below for more information about
using libvirt with python</li><li><strong>Perl</strong>: Daniel Berrange provides <a href="http://search.cpan.org/dist/Sys-Virt/">bindings for
Perl</a>.</li><li><strong>OCaml</strong>: Richard Jones supplies <a href="http://libvirt.org/ocaml/">bindings for OCaml</a>.</li><li><strong>Ruby</strong>: David Lutterkort provides <a href="http://libvirt.org/ruby/">bindings for Ruby</a>.</li><li><strong>Java</strong>: Daniel Veillard maintains <a href="java.html">Java bindings</a>.</li><li><strong>C#</strong>: Richard Jones wrote about <a href="https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2008-September/msg00283.html">calling libvirt from C# on the mailing list</a>.</li></ul>
<p>For information on using libvirt on <strong>Windows</strong>
<a href="windows.html">please see the Windows
support page</a>.
</p>
<p>Support, requests or help for libvirt bindings are welcome on
the <a href="https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list/">mailing
list</a>, as usual try to provide enough background information
and make sure you use recent version, see the <a href="bugs.html">help
page</a>.</p>
