Previously we need a file buffer that is as large as the file size and
this could be a problem when user has less free memory available or
having very large data. Now with the help of `FileOutputIterator`,
we can have a much smaller, fixed size immediate file buffer and also
the code looks nice with `lt::bencode()`.
Stops temporary containers being created needlessly due to API misuse.
For example, it’s common for developers to assume QHash::values() and
QHash::keys() are free and abuse them, failing to realize their
implementation internally actually iterates the whole container, allocates
memory, and fills a new QList.
Added a removeIf generic algorithm, similar to std ones. We can't use std
algorithms with Qt dictionaries because Qt iterators have different
behavior from the std ones.
Found using clazy.
Legacy SearchEngine class really has three roles:
1. Manage search plugins,
2. Handle the search job, and
3. Handle the download of the torrent file using the search plugin.
Now it is splitted into 3 classes: SearchManager, SearchHandler and
SearchDownloadHandler.
Search GUI is also improved.
Normalize Web API method names.
Allow to use alternative Web UI.
Switch Web API version to standard form (i.e. "2.0").
Improve Web UI translation code.
Retranslate changed files.
Add Web API for RSS subsystem.
It may be useful to have different configurations either for portable
versions or for debugging purposes. To implement this we add two
options, avaliable via command line switches
1. An option to change configuration name ("--configuration"). The name
supplied via this option is appended to
QCoreApplication::applicationName() to form "qBittorrent_<conf_name>"
name for the configuration files.
2. An option to provide a path do directory where all the settings are
stored (kind of profile directory). There is a shortcut "--portable"
which means "use directory 'profile' near the executable location".
In order to implement that we have to perform initialisation of the
profile directories before the SettingStorage and Preferences singletones
are initialised. Thus, options parsing shall be performed without defaults
read from preferences.
In addition to the current tooltip, which shows color legend, if user
holds the Shift key during hovering we show another tooltip which
contains a table of contents for the piece under the moue cursor. The
table lists file sizes and names. If the cursor points to a part of a
file which spans several pieces, those pieces are highlighted.
Some browsers do not download files, intended for immediate opening,
into a temporary directory, and thus a regular download directories
accumulate those unneeded files.
The option allows qBittorrent to clean after itself and delete those
files whether they were succesfully added or not (user-selectable
policy).
