[rGUI] Serverlist window [SVN]
« on: July 14, 2010, 12:44:14 AM »
1) The information displayed is not updated until you restart the rGUI.
So manually/automatically adding servers is a pain.

2) The servers in the list aren't initially pinged (once) for information when added if your not connected to any server. This obviously helps beacuse it gets vital information such as  the Name of the server from the IP address and other stats (obfuscation) without having to connect  blindly first to get it.

3) The Disconnect button doesn't update anything (I think...)

4) 'Priority' and 'Static' right click options interaction with 'server.met' and 'staticservers.dat'.
sometimes actions from the window are saved and written to the files, sometimes they are not.
sometimes the window shows the users server preferences from the files, sometimes it doesn't .

5) 'Server Info' Tab needs filling with..:
Code: [Select]
Connection
Connected
ServerMessage
Dissconnected..stuff..

6) 'ED2K Info' Tab,
name of server connected to..
obfuscation info... yes/no/supports?

'remote.conf' stuff

7) 'Server Name' column  width not saved

8 ) Sorting servers by a certain column is not saved, on restarting the GUI it can seem to randomly change.

Well - looks like a bit more todo...  :-\

I can't promise I can get around to do this before 2.3.

But TBH, if I was you, I'd save myself lots of time in the future, and ditch ed2k altogether, no one uses it..

I'm so convinced why don't we have a  big vote on the main forum to see if actually anyone uses servers any-more and would care if it was  
removed, I think refining KAD is the future.

I agree (and that's why I have neglected this), but not everybody does.
Also, Kad simply doesn't run on low low end machines (routers) because it eats up too much memory. And there's the bootstrapping issue. (Connecting to clients through a server will also bootstrap Kad, even without downloading a nodes.dat.)

It's probably another "let's-follow-eMule" issue. When they drop it, we will too.

I don't think you not using it means noone uses it. That would imply you = everyone which is certainly not true  8)
