Link to GXS group is a concept that is useful for almost all GXS based
services, gen exchange now provides method to facilitate the
implementation of group links at service layer.
Move waitToken in token service interface.
ATM it support extracting metadata only from OGG files.
The system has been designed to be easly extensible to more file formats
registering more indexer functions which just need to extract metadata
from a certain type of file and feed it to Xapian.
The system has been integrated into existent file search system to
through generric search requests and results, it keep a good level of
retro-compatibility due to some tricks.
The indexing system is released under AGPLv3 so when libretroshare is compiled
with deep search enabled AGPLv3 must be honored instead of LGPLv3-or-later.
Cleaned up the debian copyright file using non-deprecated license
code-names.
On Android and potencially other mobile platforms, WiFi drivers are configured
by default to discard any packet that is not directed to the unicast mac
address of the interface, this way they could save some battery but breaks
anything that is not unicast, such as broadcast discovery. To solve this
problem On such platforms provide methods to handle low level multicast
listening so we can receive advertisement from same broadcast domain nodes.
In Restbed one is not supposed to call session->yield outside the
threads controlled by Restbed. RetroShare JSON API async call were
calling session->yield from threads controlled by RetroShare all the
times, this caused crashes in some cases, like when the JSON API
socket timed out concurrently with the session->yield call .
To solve this problem session->yield from async
calls are now wrapped insto mService->schedule to ensure they are
executed on the right thread (aka one of the threads controlled by
Restbed).
While solving this issue I realized also that passing RsEvents as const
references around was quite limiting in cases where the event need to
be finally handled in another thread, in that case passing by const
reference the RsEvent needed to be copied by value into the thread
that process it, in this copy by value process the information of
which was the original specific type is lost, and then only the data
and methods from general RsEvents are available, unless the handler
does tricky stuff with type coercion etc. To solve this limitation
pass the events as std::shared_ptr<const RsEvent> seems the safer and
more elegant solution.
