Re: Occasional hang in Cvpcb when retrieving footprint libraries from github

 

So last night I actually almost completed a patch for the replacement of
avhttp/boost with libcurl. Extremely lightweight, <300 lines of code
with a reusable wrapper class.

Would be interesting to see how it does given its a extremely stable
and mature library so expect it to work far better than a boost monstrosity.


Follow ups
