LibTorrent is a BitTorrent library written in C++ for *nix. It is designed to avoid redundant copying and storing of data that other clients and libraries suffer from. Licensed under the GPL. Library Features: * The client has full control over the polling of sockets. * Sigc++ signals makes i easy for the client to react to events. * Fast resume which checks the file modification time. * Direct reading and writing from network to mmap'ed files: o Avoids duplication of data where both the application and the kernel has a copy of the file chunk. o Unused chunks get thrown out or written to disk instead of the swap. o Kernel handles caching of the file. * File hash check: o Uses the same thread. o Client can control the rate. (Will be improved) o Only one torrent at a time is checked. o Non-blocking and preload to cache with the mincore and madvise system calls. * Different download priorities for files in the torrent. * Support for files larger than 2 GB. * No dependency on any specific HTTP library, the client implements a wrapper class. * Dynamic request pipe size. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.9-1-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
