Using iostream usually adds a lot of other operators (<<, endl), whereas
*printf takes only 1 function call.
Also use qUtf8Printable whenever possible.
Stops temporary containers being created needlessly due to API misuse.
For example, it’s common for developers to assume QHash::values() and
QHash::keys() are free and abuse them, failing to realize their
implementation internally actually iterates the whole container, allocates
memory, and fills a new QList.
Added a removeIf generic algorithm, similar to std ones. We can't use std
algorithms with Qt dictionaries because Qt iterators have different
behavior from the std ones.
Found using clazy.
Avoid temporary string allocations. They are only used to convert to
something else.
QString::xxxRef() returns a QStringRef. QStringRef avoids the memory
allocation and reference counting overhead of a standard QString by simply
referencing a part of the original string.
qDebug(), qInfo(), qWarning(), qCritical(), qFatal() expect %s arguments
to be UTF-8 encoded, while qPrintable() converts to local 8-bit encoding.
Therefore qUtf8Printable() should be used for logging strings instead of
qPrintable().
We stored reference to parameters object in main(), but that object gets
deleted when we reset Application object upon entering daemon mode.
Change reference to copy to fix that.
write() is declared with __attribute__ ((__warn_unused_result__)) and as
such we shall check its return value. Took opportunity and adjusted
error reporting a bit: if writing to stderr fails, try to write to
stdout.
Arguments include adding torrents as paused/started, skiping hash check, setting category, downloading in sequential order, downloading first and last pieces first, and skipping the 'add new torrent' dialog. Added TriStateBoolOption class for specifying options that don't have a default value when unused (e.g. add-paused). Also improved command line usage text to include more information, have better organization, and not exceed 80 columns in width. Also also added firstLastPiecePriority field to BitTorrent::AddTorrentData, and modified TorrentHandle so that if first/last piece priority should be on, it will be toggled on after the torrent's metadata has loaded.
