Finally got around to adding this option. It's -M to enable messages.

Hey clintar, thank you for adding this option. I also sent you 2 XPM to support you and your work. I know it isn't much, but I don't have much more atm anyways. Grin

However, I think you introduced a bug with the last update. A new System of mine using your latest version crashes after some hours of working quite fine with the following output:

Code:

xpt: Disconnected, auto reconnect in 30 seconds
xptPacketbuffer_writeData(): Packetbuffer too small
xptPacketbuffer_writeData(): Packetbuffer too small
xptPacketbuffer_writeData(): Packetbuffer too small

First occurence after ~8 hours, second one after ~14. The earlier version of the miner is running on another system for > 1 Week now without any problems. Undecided

I've found the bug. It's funky 'cause I couldn't get the program to think it got disconnected even by unplugging the ethernet cable, or setting a bad route to ypool. I had to trick it into thinking it did or it just happily keeps hashing thinking everything is fine, which makes me wonder what circumstances make it think it gets disconnected. I've got to look into the socket routines to see if something different needs to be done to check for a disconnect. I've got a few other fixes I need to test and I'll update when that's done. Thanks for the report, and sorry it takes me so long to respond. I need more time...

Edit: Changes should be live now. WARNING: There is now a 3% dev fee. 2.5% going to AeroCloud, .5% to me.
