Het is een tijdje stil geweest rondom DC++, maar sinds enkele maanden lijkt de ontwikkeling weer te zijn opgepakt. DC++ is een van de vele programma's om bestanden via het Direct Connect-netwerk uit te wisselen. Het programma dankt de twee plussen in zijn naam aan C++, waarin het is geschreven. Het pakket wordt door Jacek Sieka ontwikkeld en is een opensourcevariant van de originele Neomodus Direct Connect-client. In versie 0.864 is onder meer een stabiliteitsprobleem aangepakt. De complete changelog sinds versie 0.850 kan hieronder worden gevonden.
Changes in version DC++ 0.864
DC++ 0.864, along with changes in share filtering and an addition of testing notifications, fixes a stability issue regarding processing of search results. The issue is introduced in the previous release so immediate upgrade for users running version 0.863 is highly recommended.
Changes in version DC++ 0.863
DC++ 0.863, along with minor changes, fixes a stability issue in the 32-bit builds. Furthermore it contains additional optimizations for the benefit of users running DC++ on 32-bit operating systems. DC++ needs SSE3 support from this release on which means it requires Intel Core or AMD A64 X2 or newer CPUs to run. Some steppings of older processors will still work though. Immediate upgrade for users running 32-bit operating systems is highly recommended.
