DC++ restart notification

Post by bastya_elvtars » 2005-11-01 07:24

Whenever a user changes some setting that needs restart, DC++ should display a warning. (Like: You have changed settings which apply only on restart. Restart the client now?)

Isn't "Note; most of these options require that you restart DC++" enough? The label is in the only places (as far as I know) where you can change settings and need to restart DC++.

I was thiking of the connection settings when I wrote this, because it's not obvious for others as it is for you... :roll:

Last time I configured the connection settings, I didn't need to restart. They worked on-the-fly.

They should just work, that's what the block of code in MainFrame::OnFileSettings() is supposed to take care of. If we advocate restarting DC++, it's just because it's more reassuring to users. :)

Of course, there could be a bug in the code, but I don't use it enough to notice.
