The account file is simply the XML file in the boinc directory that contains account information for the project... it contains the master URL, authenticator, project name, and host venue for the specific host. It'll also contain any project-specific preferences that may or may not apply (ie; the color scheme in SETI@Home II). The file is named account_$PROJECTURL.xml The state file (client_state.xml) is the monster... errr... master file for boinc. It contains a boatload of information about the host, what projects are attached, what projects are running, what workunits are available, workunit signatures, boinc-wide preferences (like proxy servers), default host venue... stuff like that. If you look through the files, the XML tags used to describe them are relatively self-explanatory. Rob ID: 76029 ·

Ok, I will look again ... Well, they make perfect sense after you've been digging around in various code for the last year or so. >g< It's probably half me already knowing what they are. > But I am going to steal what your sent me as a starter. > > And I will even assign you the blame, er, credit ... If the shoe fits.... > Oh, and thanks... it should show up in the Friday upload ... You're welcome. :-) Rob ID: 76181 ·
