[libtorrent] Where in the world can I find the source

Re: [libtorrent] Where in the world can I find the source

It's on the cvs.

For instruction for how to download it, see: 
http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=79942
(under Anonymous CVS access)

you'll need a cvs client though. If you're using a unix-like os (or 
cygwin in windows), you can probably just cut'n'paste tha command lines 
off that webpage.

If you're using windows you can either get cygwin (probably a bit 
overkill for just having cvs), WinCVS (http://www.wincvs.org/) or 
Tortoise CVS (http://www.tortoisecvs.org/).

The module name is 'libtorrent'.

[libtorrent] Need help about running simple_client

Re: [libtorrent] Need help about running simple_client

Hi.

I have been having problems with cygwin too. So, in a way it is a known 
issue. But I can't recall having encountered that assert. Do you get the 
same error consistently?

I just get access violations. It's a bit hard to debug since insight 
will break for segment violations within the pthread library:

KERNEL32!IsBadWritePtr

 From the name, it sounds like it's supposed to accept invalid pointers.

If I just continue at each such break, eventually the program will exit 
and the following is printed to the gdb-console:

Program exited with code 0303000

And I have no idea what that means. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

It works very well on linux though, with pthreads. And in windows built 
with devstudio.

[libtorrent] Re: Please tell me how to compile libtorrent with msvc6.0+sp5

The first step is to build the boost libraries. The easiest way to do
this is to build them from the command line, with bjam.

First you have to build bjam. cd to the 'tools/build/jam_src' and run
build.bat

Since your not building for cygwin, it's important that you do this from
a windows shell, and not from a cygwin shell.

When the build script finishes, there should be a 'bin.ntx86/' folder
(or something similar) with bjam.exe in. Copy this executable to a
folder in the search PATH. For example 'c:\winnt'.

Now, to build the boost libaries, cd to 'libs/thread/build' and run bjam.

You may have to run it with an extra parameter like this: 'bjam
-sTOOLS=msvc', to excplicitly tell it which compiler you want it to use.

a 'bin' folder is created upon completion which will contain both debug
and release versions of the library (many nested directories).

repeat this process for date_time and filesystem libraries too.

To make the vc6 project work you will have to build it with dynamic
linkage to the runtime and with a multithreaded version of the runtime.
(Multithreaded DLL or something). You'll of course also have to add the
boost-path as an include path and just link against the built boost
libraries.

I haven't tested libtorrent with vc6 for a while either, so there may be
internal compiler errors and stuff. Just let me know in that case.

Hope that helps, I've probably missed something.

libtorrent relies on the OS' disk cache, I have not experienced any 
problems with that.

If you have compiled in debug mode (or without defining NDEBUG), there 
are lots of invariant checks that will take lots of CPU. During 
development I think it's best to still run in debug mode to make sure 
there are no unexpected states or invariant violations. But in release 
mode it takes much less CPU.

In my tests in release mode it takes average about 1% cpu (or less).

Writing to disk shouldn't make the cpu-usage go up though.

[libtorrent] Do you have any idea about other BT client with cache writing support ?

Re: [libtorrent] Do you have any idea about other BT client with cache writing support ?

I have not tried BitComet for one reason: it's not open source.  I think
it's a sham to release a BT client without releasing the source to it, since
the original client IS open source.  I believe his reason for not GPLing it
is he is keeping open the possibility of SELLING the core.  Now I really
draw that line there.  If anyone were to sell a BT client, it would be Bram,
not him.

Anyway, what's the point of a supposed STL c++ core if he's not going to
distribute it to allow people to make their own clients for the core (and
for any OS).

Anyway, enough of my ranting.  I have a feeling that libtorrent is far
superior to it anyway.  Of course, I'm a bit biased in the matter ;)

Dear Everyone

         I compiled the libtorrent in release mode,usually it takes about 2%
cpu ,but sometime it takes 17%-70% I use Intel PIII 550 .

         The boost filesystem library support cache ?

         How do you think about the bt client “BitComet” ? It is written
with c++ stl core .

Thanks .

I think most of the cpu-spikes are hash-checks. the sha1-algorithm is
kindof expensive. But I haven't been doing any real profiling.

I'm not sure what you mean by this. Disk cache is something that's
implemented at

1) iostreams buffered output
2) operating system
3) on the hard drive

And everything using iostream (or fopen/fwrite) will automatically be
cached. I still don't beleive that anything more is necessary. And I
would like to see some benchmarks in order to motivate such a 'feature'.

>

I haven't had time to test it very much, and it's also hard to estimate
how good it is without the source. But from the feature list it seems to
lack some important features. for example piece-wise file allocation.
