What's new in EiskaltDC++ 2.3.0

Nov 13, 2013
  • Common changes:
  • GCC < 4.6 and Clang < 3.1 are not supported anymore.
  • Added option (ShareSkipZeroByte) for skipping zero sized files from share.
  • Thanks to Anh Phan the Vietnamese translation is now available.
  • Fixed finding of Lua 5.2.x during configuration.
  • The local copy of miniupnpc is updated to version 1.8. Build with old miniupnpc versions (1.5.x, 1.6.x and 1.7.x) is still supported.
  • eiskaltdcpp-qt:
  • Added some options in settings dialog: SHARE_SKIP_ZERO_BYTE
  • eiskaltdcpp-gtk:
  • Added some options in settings dialog: SHARE_SKIP_ZERO_BYTE
  • eiskaltdcpp-daemon:
  • Updated embedded mongoose library to version 3.9.
  • Updated embedded jsoncpp library to current state in SVN trunk.
  • Added cmake option LOCAL_JSONCPP. Now it is possible to build program with system version of library jsoncpp. But have in mind, if this library do not have our patch, it will causes segmentation faults in eiskaltdcpp-daemon.

New in EiskaltDC++ 2.2.9 (Sep 6, 2013)

  • COMMON CHANGES:
  • Fixed build with GCC < 4.6 and Clang < 3.1. This is the last release with support of old compilers.
  • Fixed cmake rules for building with sr@latin localization.
  • Small code refactoring and optimisation.
  • EISKALTDCPP-QT:
  • Improvements in search widget: now progress bar works as expected.
  • Fixed segmentation fault on right click at some nicknames in public chats.
  • Fixed SIGABRT during closing Tic-Tac-Toe QML widget.
  • Fixed SIGABRT on program exit when QtScript "LogManager View" is active.
  • A number of improvements for Mac OS X:
  • disabled system tray functionality (it never worked there as expected)
  • added special program menu to the dock icon
  • now program is hided into dock instead of exiting by the click on window close button
  • added platform-specific code to handle left click on program icon in dock (now it works as in native Mac OS X programs)
  • added dock icon jumping when there are new unread personal messages
  • added support for Retina displays (fonts are rendered in high resolution when program built with Qt 4.8.x)
  • Some platform-specific improvements in settings dialog: hided options which do not work in Mac OS X, MS Windows or Haiku.
  • EISKALTDCPP-GTK:
  • Improvements in search widget: now progress bar works as expected.
  • Fixed SIGABRT when gdk_display_get_default() returns NULL.
  • EISKALTDCPP-DAEMON:
  • Fixed check of log file existence in daemon mode (see --syslog and --log command-line options).
  • EISKALTDCPP-CLI:
  • Fixed work with libjson-rpc-perl >= 1.00 (module JSON::RPC::Client was moved to JSON::RPC::Legacy::Client there). [Thanks to Damyan Ivanov]

New in EiskaltDC++ 2.2.8 (Jun 24, 2013)

  • Common changes:
  • Fix build with Boost >= 1.50. Dropped support for Boost < 1.39.
  • Added support of Lua 5.1.x (used by default) and Lua 5.2.x.
  • The local copy of miniupnpc is updated to version 1.7. Build with oldminiupnpc versions (1.5.x and 1.6.x) is still supported.
  • Fix connection problem when hub domain name has IPv6 address. While we do nothave IPv6 support yet, hints.ai_family = AF_UNSPEC was causing the connectionproblem. [Thanks to Jan Vidar Krey]
  • Changed logic of search intervals: now minimum search interval can be equalto zero. [Thanks to Dmitry Arkhipov]
  • Fixed file names for cache of public hub lists: now these files are saved andloaded properly.
  • Now mutexes from C++11 standard are used in *nix systems. While MinGW doesnot support this feature, mutexes from Boost are used in MS Windows.Added cmake option DO_NOT_USE_MUTEX (default: OFF), which switches on theold algorithm: Haiku and WINE do not support mutexes yet, so this optionis necessary for them. Also this option is used for build in Mac OS X.
  • Added option for keeping unfinished downloads of file-lists in queue betweenprogram restart. (Disabled by default, because it is not very useful: usermay leave hub or change CID and such file-list will be in download queueuntil you manually delete it.)
  • Added option for choosing MIME handler (i.e. kfmclient, gnome-open). UseMimeHandler field in DCPlusPlus.xml to set it manually.
  • Fixed buffer overflow error on exit. Problem was caused by attempt to readdata from closed UDP socket.
  • Thanks to Helder Cesar the Portuguese translation is now available.
