If you need any help to understand the code or where it might need tuning, feel free to contact me, through the forum, IM or #phex on irc.freenode.net
I'm not 24h on though, only when at home.


@Linuxhippy
You know that if you need any further help to make your edition worth using, I'm happy to assist.

Well I broke it in some way but sure I'll "fix" it somehow and put it online as I promised. I am just a bit short of time
However it most likely won't be used in out studentenheim because it uses so much memory for each shared file and all attempts to fix it did only solve the problem partially :-/

I was just a bit angry about the way the question was written so if this guy talks about other's poor code or sets deadlines ... well ... then let him suceed in what others fail ^^

Please don't let it flare emotions. Forum posts are easy enough to misunderstand among native speakers, and even easier, if neither writer nor reader are native speakers of the used language (which goes for me as well )

About the memory problem you could try using the new Phex release as base since we fixed a nasty memory leak in 3.0.0.

@ Linuxhippy: Sorry, dude, did not want to hurt you :/. The reason for my "deadline" isn't arrogance but the feeling that the last post is actually some time ago. I was a bit of pessimistic about your code, thats true ;/ But again, I hope not because of arrogance, but because u mentioned things like that: "However my code is ugly and stupid" & "Mostly hard-coded options".

Sorry about the confusion... if there is any code which could help, i'd like to read/use it. But you should be able to judge whether its worth much better than I do, so pls don't be angry about my point of view. [I just take what you say. If you say it's not worth it, I won't bother you.]

I agree with arne_bab. Just forget what I said and feel free to contact me if you have something.

Peace out ,

How does it go?

[LeviIntelexiCondemnavi]

Actually, i will delay this stuff for at least 3 month. My bachelor thesis deals with p2p-networks too [nat-traversal techniques], and I prefer not to be on 2 projects in the same "category", i prefer some change. as soon as i begin with it, i will post it.

[arne_bab]

Could you post a link to you rthesis here, as soon as you finished it?

I think it will be quite interesting to Phex.

Best wishes,
Arne

Hello,
In file /src/phex/net/Server.java Line 132 replace the Method with the following:

public boolean hasConnectedIncoming()
{
return true;
}
After I replace as the above, I can download files from other peers.
I can browse files from other peers. But when I search, there is no result from other peers in a Private network.
How can I search files from other peers in a LAN network?
Thank alot!

Reduce your posting speed and double posts... you wont get answers faster with more post... you will just reduce the chance of an answer...

There are many many reasons why a search might not get results: no query routing table exchanged yet, files not fully hashed, hosts appear firewalled (icon in lower left corner), host is busy... and on and on and on... you might need to debug your special case..
You might like to check if the query reaches its destination (query monitor tab) and then debug why the destination doesn't answer.
For example check ShareManager.handleQuery() starting at line 135
There are various reasons stated why a search gets no responses.
Also MessageDispatcher.handleQuery() at line 213 might drop/ignore out of whatever reason.
