Auto priority dor nearly finished downloads

Post by 0ne » 2003-09-05 09:13

i thougt about a feature that might be interesting.

DC++ should give to files nearly finished to dl a higher priority than others files.

by example : you've got 100 files in dl queue and this features gives high priority to the 25 first ones,normal to the 25 following,low to the 25 following and lowest to the 25 last files (highest is for queue lists).

that would improve the way DC++ download files (and i think will optimize usage of the temp download folder)

ps : sorry for my poor english,i'm french :)

I took delphi and coded a little thing to make this.go to http://0ne.fr.st to get a way to change your queue.xml in order to give high priority to files that are 50% downloaded.

i've included the source (quickly and badly written).you've just got to give the full name of your queue.xml (like c:\program files\dc\queue.xml) and clik the button.then quit and launch dc++ :D
