Added support for dchub://hubip:port and dchub://hubip:port/nick (will download that users filelist) (partially
by Luca Rota, thanks) (completely untested)
Sort by slots in search is now secondarily sorted by open slots
Fixed sort by priority in queue window
Fixed \"don\'t remove dupes\" option
Improved performance a bit when there were a lot of \"no free download slots\"
Fixed missing join messages
Shift-enter in hub send message instead of adding a newline to the text (use ctrl-enter for newlines)
(because a lot of people can\'t type properly and keep holding shift when pressing enter...I hear old (60+)
people often do this...=)
More changes to the autosearch, it should now be more random and therefore yield better results...
Old download queues (pre 0.174) are no longer loaded
Added better error handling on failed downloads
Added a column to the queue window that shows which sources have failed and why
Major changes in the connection queue handling for better stability in the future
Added doxygen configuration file. To generate a very nice overview of the dc++ sources
download doxygen (Www.doxygen.org) and graphviz (search google), then check doxyfile
for the proper paths, and then type start doxygen in the project directory
Removed sources are no longed automatically readded by the autosearch feature
Added option to readd a removed/bad source from the queue window
Added option to remove a user from all queued downloads from the transfer window
About:
DC++ is an open-source, peer-to-peer file-sharing client that can be used to connect to the Direct Connect network. It is developed primarily by Jacek Sieka.
As of 2006, no official statistics exist to verify the proportion of DirectConnect users using DC++. However, it is generally believed to be the most extensively used by a large margin; administrators of popular public DirectConnect hubs generally agree that DC++ is the client used by a significant majority.
DC++ is an open-source alternative to the original client, NeoModus Direct Connect (NMDC). It connects to the same file-sharing network, and supports the same file-sharing protocol. One of the reasons commonly attributed to the aforementioned popularity of DC++ is the fact that it has no adware of any kind; NMDC on the other hand contains adware.
