rtorrent-work-stealing

Rtorrent-work-stealing is a project mainly written in C++ and C, based on the GPL-2.0 license.

rtorrent with some modifications and extensions to better utilize work stealing

BUILDING

Run "./autogen.sh" to generate the configure scripts if nessesary. The man page "doc/rtorrent.1" must be generated with "docbook2man rtorrent.1.xml" if it is missing.

Note that rtorrent follows the development of libtorrent closely, and thus the versions must be in sync. This should not be nessesary in the future, when the library API stabilizes.

USAGE

See the man page or website for instructions.

LICENSE

GNU GPL, see COPYING. "libtorrent/src/utils/sha_fast.{cc,h}" is originally from the Mozilla NSS and is under a triple license; MPL, LGPL and GPL. An exception to non-NSS code has been added for linking to OpenSSL as requested by Debian, though the author considers that library to be part of the Operative System and thus linking is allowed according to the GPL.

Use whatever fits your purpose, the code required to compile with Mozilla's NSS implementation of SHA1 has been retained and can be compiled if the user wishes to avoid using OpenSSL.

DEPENDENCIES

libcurl >= 7.12.0 ncurses
