Project Details
0.1 Milestone
The goal of this milestone is to get libtorrent compiled as a static library and be able to wrap it into an XPCOM component. To demonstrate the proof of this working, I plan to inject a simple HelloWorld alert statement into one of the libtorrent functions.
Expected Release Date: Oct 17, 2008
Tasks
-
Compile Libtorrent as a static library -
