This release fixes the bug that configure script fails to detect
|

BitTorrent/FTP downloads when --interface option is used. If

GnuTLS library if --without-sqlite3 is given. The new XML-RPC methods
|
||||||
--metalink-file='-' is given, aria2 now reads Metalink file from
|
are added: aria2.getOption, aria2.getGetGlobalOption,
|
||||||
stdin. Magnet URI is printed in the output of -S option. DHT is
|
aria2.changePosition, aria2.tellStopped and system.multicall.
|

now enabled by default. DHT doesn't start while aria2 only handles
|
--bt-save-metadata option is added. This option saves metadata as
|

HTTP/FTP downloads. On the first torrent download begins, aria2

.torrent file. This option has effect only when BitTorrent Magnet URI

initiates DHT functionality. After that, DHT runs until aria2 exits

is used.

-------

-------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Fixed the bug that RequestGroupMan::downloadFinished() returns true
|
* Added signal handler for SIGHUP to save .aria2 file when terminal
|
||||||
even if all downloads haven't finished, especially when
|
is closed. The handler is the same one for SIGINT and SIGTERM.
|
||||||
PostDownloadHandler is involved. Changed the condition so that it
|
|
||||||
only returns true if both _requestGroups and _reservedGroups are
|
|
||||||
empty.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Enabled DHT by default because of Magnet URI support. To disable
|
* Added system.multicall XML-RPC method.
|
||||||
DHT, use --enable-dht=false
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Print Magnet URI in -S output.
|
* Added tellStopped XML-RPC method. This method returns stopped
|
||||||
|
download in the specified range. It takes same parameters with
|
||||||
|
tellWaiting XML-RPC method. offset = 0 means the oldest download.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Fixed the bug that line separator is missing in horizontal bar in
|
* Use AI_ADDRCONFIG flag if it is available. Refactored so that
|
||||||
aria2mon.
|
getaddrinfo calls are not scattered around. Unset AI_ADDRCONFIG
|
||||||
|
when conducting unit tests because they fail if networking
|
||||||
|
interface is not configured with IPv4 address.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* If '-' is given as an argument to --metalink-file option, aria2
|
* Added --bt-save-metadata option. When true is given, it saves
|
||||||
reads Metalink file from stdin.
|
metadata as .torrent file. This option has effect only when
|
||||||
|
BitTorrent Magnet URI is used. The filename is hex encoded info
|
||||||
|
hash with suffix .torrent. The directory to be saved is the same
|
||||||
|
directory where download file is saved. If the same file already
|
||||||
|
exists, metdata is not saved.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Fixed the bug that aria2 listens wrong port if --interface option
|
* Added changePosition XML-RPC method. It takes 3 parameters: gid,
|
||||||
is used.
|
pos and how. This method changes the position of download denoted
|
||||||
|
by gid. If how is POS_SET, it moves the download to a position
|
||||||
|
relative to the beginning of the queue. If how is POS_CUR, it
|
||||||
|
moves the download to a position relative to the current
|
||||||
|
position. If how is POS_END, it moves the download to a position
|
||||||
|
relative to the end of the queue. If the destination position is
|
||||||
|
less than 0 or beyond the end of the queue, it moves the download
|
||||||
|
to the beginning or the end of the queue respectively. Returns the
|
||||||
|
destination position.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Fixed the bug that query parameter in magnet URI is not decoded.
|
* Added getOption and getGlobalOption XML-RPC method. getOption
|
||||||
|
takes GID as a parameter and returns its options as struct.
|
||||||
|
getGlobalOption takes no parameter and returns global
|
||||||
|
options. Because global option is used as a template for the option
|
||||||
|
of newly added downloads, it includes options returned by
|
||||||
|
getOption.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Added following 2 keys, followedBy and belongsTo, to the response
|
||||||
|
of tellStatus.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
aria2 1.7.1
|
followedBy: List of GIDs which are generated by the
|
||||||
===========
|
consequence of this download. For example, when aria2 downloaded
|
||||||
|
Metalink file, it generates downloads described in it(see
|
||||||
|
--follow-metalink option). This value is useful to track these
|
||||||
|
auto generated downloads. If there is no such downloads, this key
|
||||||
|
will not be included in the response.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Release Note
|
belongsTo: GID of a parent download. Some downloads are a part of
|
||||||
------------
|
another download. For example, if a file in Metalink has
|
||||||
|
BitTorrent resource, the download of .torrent is a part of that
|
||||||
|
file. If this download has no parent, this key will not be
|
||||||
|
included in the response.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This release fixes the bug that --bt-prioritize-piece=tail is not
|
* Show info hash in Magnet URI in upper case letters in -S output.
|
||||||
working.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Changes
|
* Fixed the bug that if --without-sqlite3 is given, pkg-config is not
|
||||||
-------
|
properly used in configure script and failed to detect gnutls.
|
||||||
|
This is because explicit call of PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG is missing and
|
||||||
* Fixed the bug that --bt-prioritize-piece=tail is not working.
|
the initialization of pkg-config is done in first occurrence of
|
||||||
|
PKG_CHECK_MODULES which is not executed because it is inside of
|
||||||
|
sqlite3.m4. Added explicit PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG call.

===========

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Release Note
|
|
||||||
------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This release adds BitTorrent Magnet URI support. 3 options were
|
|
||||||
added: the ability to bind to particular interface, disabling IPv6 and
|
|
||||||
prioritizing piece in BitTorrent downloads. In configure script, if
|
|
||||||
--with-PACKAGE and --enable-FEATURE are given but PACKAGE is missing
|
|
||||||
in the system or FEATURE cannot be enabled in the current
|
|
||||||
configuration, the script now prints error message and exits.
|
|
||||||
--http-auth-scheme option was removed since it is useless. Updated
|
|
||||||
Russian, Ukrainian, German and French translations.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Changes
|
|
||||||
-------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Updated Russian, Ukrainian, German and French translations. Thanks
|
|
||||||
to all translators involved.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Use last 8 bytes of peer ID as 'key' parameter for tracker request.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Added --disable-ipv6 option to disable IPv6.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* In configure script, if --with-PACKAGE and --enable-FEATURE are
|
|
||||||
given and PACKAGE is missing in the system or FEATURE cannot be
|
|
||||||
enabled, print error message and stop the script.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Added --interface option. This feature binds sockets to given
|
|
||||||
interface. You can specify interface name, IP address and hostname.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Removed --http-auth-scheme option since it is useless.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Added --bt-request-peer-speed-limit, --bt-max-peers and
|
|
||||||
--bt-prioritize-piece option to changeOption XML-RPC method.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Added option --bt-prioritize-piece. This option instruct aria2 to
|
|
||||||
try to download first and last pieces of each file first. This
|
|
||||||
option is useful for previewing files. The argument can contain 2
|
|
||||||
keywords:head and tail. To include both keywords, they must be
|
|
||||||
separated by comma. These keywords can take one parameter,
|
|
||||||
SIZE. For example , if head=SIZE is specified, pieces in the range
|
|
||||||
of first SIZE bytes of each file get higher priority. tail=SIZE
|
|
||||||
means the range of last SIZE bytes of each file. SIZE can include K
|
|
||||||
or M(1K = 1024, 1M = 1024K).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Use host and protocol in original URI to record server's speed,
|
|
||||||
because URI selector selects URI based on original URI, not
|
|
||||||
redirected one.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Fixed the bug which causes segmentation fault with tellWaiting
|
|
||||||
XML-RPC method when BitTorrent download is waiting.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Added support of Extension for Peers to Send Metadata Files(BEP9)
|
|
||||||
and BitTorrent Magnet URI. Now addUri XML-RPC method accepts
|
|
||||||
BitTorrent Magnet URI. Metalink resource type 'bittorrent' also
|
|
||||||
accepts BitTorrent Magnet URI.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Fixed the bug that slow server is not knocked down in favor of
|
|
||||||
faster one.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Applied a patch from tizianomueller to fix sigbus errors on Linux
|
|
||||||
sparc. I modified the patch to eliminate a cast to uint32_t* and
|
|
||||||
include file ordering.
