That's not it. The python code that generates the message does indeed use "hello" so I would expect a vbin containing the bytes "hello", but what I see is a vbin containing *the AMQP string encoding* of the string hello - i.e. a 7 byte binary sequence with the typecode for AMQP string + the length 5 + the bytes "hello" > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "aconway" <acon...@redhat.com> > > To: "proton" <proton@qpid.apache.org> > > Sent: Tuesday, September 8, 2015 5:36:39 PM > > Subject: Bug in proton interop suite?? > > > > I'm doing some interop work on the go binding, and I see something > > strange in the 'message.amqp' file in tests/interop.
