With Java 19 we’ll be able to start experimenting with Virtual Threads which will provide us more efficient ways to do tasks in parallel by using considerably less memory, it also allows us to replace many simple classes for Records which should help us reduce boilerplate code and reduce the code base to some extent.

With this release we managed to remove almost all code warnings presented by java 18 and below compilers and only have one deprecation warning in our “””common” codebase, which will be waiting to be fixed once Java for Android catches up with Java for desktop.

Partial Downloading

Yes, we call this “Partial Downloading”.

With a TorrentHandle object you want to play with methods like

filePriority(int index, Priority priority)

where the index represents the position of the file you want to download (or not) in the list of files described by the torrent.

You can also use prioritizeFiles(Priority[] priorities) to update the priorities, and you can find what the priorities are with Priority[] filePriorities()

A (Downloading) Priority is an enum whose possible values are
IGNORE (Don’t download this file),
NORMAL (Download this file depending on availability)

and then you have priorities that are considered higher than NORMAL,
they start at TWO all the way to SEVEN.

You can use the other priorities
different than NORMAL if you want certain files to be downloaded before others (network conditions allowing)
