I just realized that my patch does *not* solve the problem (and had an error in the implementation, but that's only secondary).

aMule already displayed all known files in green, even those which were cancelled. My code just changed the green color to grey and was meant to differ between files still being shared and removed files.

I'll try to have a look at it when I come back from work.

But that will also show in gray the files I downloaded successfully but for some reason I took out of the incoming folder, doesn't it?

Regards.

Yes, that's what I meant when I said cancelled/removed files in an earlier post.

To really resolve this problem are further changes needed, which I won't make before the release of 2.2.0.

I recently filed http://www.amule.org/abugs/view.php?id=1571 and was asked to make a forum post, I see there is already a thread concerning this so I'll just bump it. I'm wondering can be done about this. I'm unfamiliar with aMule's architecture, but I have a thorough understanding of C++, and the libraries that aMule appears to use, so perhaps if someone was willing to steer me in the right direction I could work on this myself.

Please start a thread in the forum to discuss the issue. It has been discussed before, but I can't remember the result right now.
To do this you have to store the hashes of the canceled files in a map, save it on shutdown and load it on startup (like the known files in known.met).
Could known.met be used? Where in the source should this be implemented?

First we have to see if everybody agrees on the feature. Then implementation should not be a problem.
known.met should not be touched for reasons of compatibility, but the places where it's read/written are the same where canceled.met (to name it) has to be accessed.

Got it running (at least without EC).
When should the "canceled" status be reset? When the file is downloaded again, or only when it completes download?

When it get's downloaded again. So it has either downloading/finished or cancelled instead of downloading and cancelled.

I'd prefer when it's completed. So if you start a download from a link you have a chance to see it was canceled before.

That was the intention. If it's in cancelled list, mark it on the search somehow. If someone decides to start it again, move into downloading till it's finished or cancelled again. otherwise you'll get told it was cancelled while you are downloading already again.

That's good, but doesn't help if you add the file from an ed2k link (e.g. by clicking a link in your browser).

Sure, but does anything happen when you click a link that is already downloading, or if you click an already finished link? I don't think so, it just keeps downloading or downloads it again, so no disadvantage on that side, but an advantage for users using the search.

Vollstrecker, the idea is to show an ongoing download as "canceled at some time" (maybe in the properties). This is only possible if the canceled state is kept while downloading. If such a download shows as "canceled" or "downloading" in the search view is a different question.

ok, In the properties this is something different. Are we already displaying something like "succesfully downloaded a while ago" there?

I don't think so, but there is a feature request. It's blocked with the GUI atm.
