DC++ v0.696

[blackwings]

Isn't it a bad thing that DC++ v0.696 doesn't support files with no TTH?

Like isn't it common that very old releases of movies etc doesn't have a TTH?

Changes in DC++ v0.696 regarding TTH =

* Removed the possibility to download files without TTH
* Removed the possibility to read *.DcLst files (no TTH, no i18n support)
* Files with no TTH no longer show up in search and directory listings
* Sources in the queue with no TTH support will no longer appear
* Files without TTH in the queue will be removed (finish downloads with an older version)

[PPK]

Creating of TTH is possible from any file... more problem is that they with this disallowing most (maybe all) non-DC++ based clients because DC++ will not be able to download from them :

Will this also break compatibility with multi platform or linux based clients like valknut?

[PPK]

Yes it is not able to download from Valknut (tested with actual stable 0.3.7 version), exactly i don't know any non-DC++ based client compatible with 0.696+  :

Maybe DC:Pro? That client as I know has TTH support  :-\

Edit:

Heeeey check this:

ldcpp (linux/bsd) and shakespeer(mac) should work.

[PPK]

DC:Pro have TTH support, but last version i have don't support ADCGET and TTHF needed by DC++ 0.696. ldcpp will work, when i last check it it was based on DC++ 0.691. I don't have mac to test shakespeer, but in source it looks like it is compatible with DC++ 0.696.

[blackwings]

I don't think ShakesPeer is compatible with DC++ 0.696 because it hasn't been updated since April.

LinuxDC++/ldcpp , is working just fine as i use that one permanent..
no problems yet only a few lacking functions

Something to continue this topic 

DC++ has a newer stable release

DC++
Stable
Released 2006-10-20

DC++ v0.698 (Installer)
DC++ v0.698 (Binary)
DC++ v0.698 (Source)

Because stable releases appear automatically in the update window now all DC++ users should use this one with "only TTH and no DcLst"

[PPK]

Tested and stable... it is stable if client freeze and use 100 % cpu  ???  ;D

The DC++ forum's timeouting continously since I've tried to check it today
I imagine the clean DC++ users updating in large numbers because of the warning at start  ;D
If it freezes for only 1% - 2% of them it should worth seeing the DC++ forums' bugreport thread  :

Some of the lack of compatability between clients is slightly annoying, as are the script lua version incompatibilities with ptokax. I'm all for this, sod non hashing clients.
