What are functions for..

... force attempt and usernick. I tried to read source. I'm not 100% sure is cgi->getUser() function to get username of client which you try to connect (line 197-> ConnectionManager.cpp on oDC. Lines 197-199:

Code: Select all

                while(i != pendingDown.end()) {
                        ConnectionQueueItem* cqi = i->first;
                        dcassert(cqi->getUser());

). I'm trying to make oDC try again on smaller time than it normaly does (60s). I have found line where it checks time. Current problem is that I need to use 'Force attempt' pretty many times (it just says "Connecting...". When I press 'Force attempt', it starts downloading or gives normal error message ('no slots available' etc.). I want to use 'force attempt' feature for some users on every 10th time it tries to connect).

Thank you.

The cqi->getUser() actually returns a pointer to a User object. The User object contains lots of things, among them, the Client (which is a reference to the hub that the user is connected to).

Umm... did this answer your question?

This is how DC++ does a force attempt :

Code: Select all

LRESULT MainFrame::onForce(WORD /*wNotifyCode*/, WORD /*wID*/, HWND /*hWndCtl*/, BOOL& /*bHandled*/) {
   int i = -1;
   while( (i = ctrlTransfers.GetNextItem(i, LVNI_SELECTED)) != -1) {
      ctrlTransfers.SetItemText(i, COLUMN_STATUS, CSTRING(CONNECTING_FORCED));
      ((ItemInfo*)ctrlTransfers.GetItemData(i))->user->connect();
   }
   return 0;
}

... so the only thing you should need to do is to do a user->connect() whenever you want to "force attempt" someone.

Ehm... hope this helps.

If they also have files they want to download from you, this would explain the lack of a GUI update. This is a problem that Sedulus experiences frequently... I tried to make a patch, very early in my DC++ experiments. Bug 687087 is the tracker number for it. Take a look, this is probably what you're seeing.
