Number of full sources for a file you release
« on: October 06, 2004, 01:53:41 AM »
emule has the feature that it shows how many people are a full source for a file you have released. This gives you usefull information when it is safe to set it to a lower release priority. I know I can also do a search for the file I'm releasing but I think this would come easy for people that release on a regular base.

I second that, would be a useful feature (for regular releasers like me :])

since you're mostly connected to the people you're uploading to, I guess there should be a way to check the number of complete files of people you are/were uploading to.
Or isn't this logic?
Emule (sivka & morph at least) has this option. Maybe one of their devs can help out implementing?

We already gather this information (in CKnownFile::UpdatePartsInfo and CPartFile::UpdatePartsInfo), but we dont use it for anything atm ... dont ask me why. I'll take a look at it tomorrow, but it should be pretty easy to re-add.

Added to CVS as of now. ;)
It still has some problems with not getting updated quite often enough, but that's something that'll require larger changes, so I'll do that later (though soon).

Great, thanks :)


It was actually me who motivated SlackFart to post this feature request, because I argued that Emule mods have several useful features that Amule is still missing. Maybe I'll think of something else later ;)


Keep up the good work!
