LIBTORRENTBUILDINGTUTORIALOVERVIEWEXAMPLESFEATURESREFERENCE license. libtorrent is released under the BSD-license.. This means that you can use the library in your project without having to release its source code. The only requirement is that you give credit to the author of the library by including the libtorrent license in your software or documentation.

LIBTORRENT

libtorrent is a feature complete C++ bittorrent implementation focusing on efficiency and scalability. It runs on embedded devices as well as desktops. It boasts a well documented library interface that is easy to use. It comes with a simple bittorrent client demonstrating the use of the library.

LIBTORRENT

To create v2-only torrents, use the v2_only flag. Perhaps the most important addition for v2 torrents is the new member function set_hash2 (), which is similar to set_hash (), but for the v2-part of a torrent. One important difference is that v2 hashes are SHA-256 hashes, and they are set per file. In v2 torrents, each file forms a

merkle tree

static linking. A python module is a shared library. Specifying link=static when building the binding won't work, as it would try to produce a static library.. Instead, control whether the libtorrent main library or boost is linked statically with libtorrent-link=static and boost-link=static respectively.. By default both are built and linked as shared libraries.

LIBTORRENT MANUAL

disk caching. All disk I/O in libtorrent is done asynchronously to the network thread, by the disk io threads. When a block is read, the disk io thread reads all subsequent blocks from that piece into the read cache, assuming that the peer requesting the block will also request more blocks from the same piece.

LIBTORRENT

You have some control over session configuration through the session::apply_settings() member function. To change one or more configuration options, create a settings_pack object and fill it with the settings to be set and pass it in to session::apply_settings().. The settings_pack object is a collection of settings updates that are applied to the session when passed to session::apply_settings().
