[Bug 674816] [NEW] share rehashing system should be updated

 

Public bug reported:

currently the share rescan/rehashing system is designed such that it re-
scans the entire directory tree after a certain amount of time.  instead
dc++ should use the ReadDirectoryChangesW windows API command to be
instantly notified by windows when files are created or modified,
removing the need to scan entirely except for on startup.  see
http://www.codeguru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=436716 for a simplified
code sample.
