Share

The share can be defined as the total list of files that you have made available for download with your DC client.

The client reads the share when starting up, when the user changes the paths that are shared, in some clients every hour for example, or in the case of DC++ when the user types a "/refresh" command.

The client then builds a filelist, containing the paths, names and sizes of each file that is shared. It then stores this list in memory for efficiently responding to search queries coming from the hub by various users. The filelist can also be transferred to other clients for browsing.
