I have been working on a client library for MQTT for the next release of
Mosquitto. It is now at a stage where it is usable and ready for wider testing.
There isn't any documentation yet (!) so it's only available in the source
repository at <http://bitbucket.org/oojah/mosquitto>. Use the "get source" link
in the top right corner of the page to download a snapshot. If you're
interested in developing your own open source MQTT clients, it'd be great if
you could take a look to make sure the interface is sane before I make a
release!
The library itself is written in C, with bindings for C++ and Python.
I plan to package it up in a more easy to access form in the not too distant
future, hopefully with some documentation as well.
# Update
I've put the start of a man page online, which shows an example of using
libmosquitto to subscribe to a topic and print the results: [libmosquitto.3].
