Use this as appropriate: e.g., for errors about cc_config.xml syntax,
direct user to the web page describing this syntax.

to request new work on exit
- client: change "unparsed tag" to "unrecognized tag" in msgs
- client: get rid of unused var work_fetch_no_new_work
svn path=/trunk/boinc/; revision=22000
If set, then:
if there are any active jobs at startup, don't fetch more work
otherwise make exactly 1 scheduler RPC requesting work,
and request only enough jobs to fill all devices.
- client: --exit_when_idle: make it available in config file
and change semantics to:
If set: exit if
1) there are no tasks, and
2) either there was an active task on startup,
or we made a scheduler RPC requesting work
Note: if there are not active tasks on startup,
and the client makes a work request which doesn't return work,
it will exit.

This means that, e.g. if you remove <ncpus>
it will revert to the actual number.
However, it also means that any config params
set via command line will be overridden.

as well as command-line.

sends the first rather than last 64KB of stderr to server.
This doesn't belong here; this choice should come from the server.
I may take this out later.

Source of proxy info (descending priority)
- GUI RPC (Manager or boinccmd)
This and only this is saved in state file.
If neither HTTP nor SOCKS server name present,
this is viewed as not present
- environment vars
- cc_config.xml
Show sources of proxy info in message log.
If one is present but overridden, show a message to that effect.
This fixes a bug where someone had a proxy info env var and
forgot about it.
They got an erroneous message saying no proxy was being used.

only if the offset is positive.
- client: some cmdline args set members of config.
However, config was being cleared after cmdline args were parsed,
so these args had no effect.
Instead, clear config before parsing cmdline

This tells you what's running, not why
- client: add <std_debug> log flag; changes in STD
The above are to let you log just stuff relevant to debt.
Right now I'm not sure why we need STD at all.

and <unsigned_apps_ok> config option.
This tells the client to allow unsigned apps.
For testing.
No file xfers or other network traffic will be allowed if set.
- client: add <exit_after_finish> option (same as cmdline flag)
- client: add <skip_cpu_benchmarks> option (same as cmdline flag)
- client: print message if abort past-deadline unstarted job
- client: improve message when have NVIDIA drivers but no GPU

These cause problems when "read" is a member name, etc.
Do these #defines, conditioned on _MSC_VER,
in the files that actually need them.

runs GPU jobs in a seemingly random order,
or preempts GPU jobs needlessly.
The change has two parts:
1) sort the "results" vector by received_time,
so that the RR simulation processes GPU jobs FIFO.
2) in the CPU scheduler (earliest_deadline_result())
instead of choosing the earliest-deadline GPU job that
misses its deadline,
pick the earliest_deadline GPU from a project that
has a deadline miss for that GPU type
(this is what's done in the CPU case)
- client: fix bug where if you have an exclusive app,
then remove it from cc_config.xml and do "update config",
it doesn't go away.
Need to clear the list before parsing.

when they're preempting another GPU job.
The problem was as follows:
- job A is chosen to preempt job B
- we tell job B to quit, and initialize job A but don't start it;
however, we set if scheduler state to SCHEDULED
(rather than UNINITIALIZED)
- job B exits, and we start job A.
Since its state is not UNITIALIZED, we don't set up its slot dir.
- job A runs in an empty slot dir, doesn't find its files, and bombs out.
- client: add <slot_debug> option (prints messages about
allocation of slots, creating/removing files in slot dirs).

This meant that the cmdline args that set config params weren't working:

1) multiply checkpoint period by # of cores (or GPUs)
2) don't write statefile after schedule_cpus()
(we write it after enforce_schedule() if anything
started or stopped, and that's all that matters)
- client: add new log flag <statefile_debug>;

(it wasn't setting the "use_XXX" flags). Fixes#776
- client: you can now include a <proxy_info> element
in your cc_config.xml options.
TODO: the whole proxy info thing needs an overhaul:
- no separate "use_XXX" flags;
non-empty http_server_name implies using HTTP proxy, etc.
- merge PROXY_INFO and GR_PROXY_INFO classes
- use XML_PARSER for parsing
- no PROXY_INFO element in HTTP_OP; just use gstate.proxy_info

There are situations where multiple projects can legitimately
have large negative LTD on a uniprocessor.
Instead...
- client: add <zero_debts> option to cc_config.xml
svn path=/trunk/boinc/; revision=17328
This fixes a bug that can cause debts to NEVER get updated.
- client: added "abort_jobs_on_exit" feature
(available by --abort_jobs_on_exit cmdline
or <abort_jobs_on_exit> in cc_config.xml).
If set, when the client is exited by user request
(this includes signals on Unix)
it marks all pending jobs as aborted,
and does a scheduler RPC to all projects with jobs.
When these are completed the client exits.
This is useful when BOINC is being used on grids
where it is wiped clean after each run.

<exclusive_app>foo.exe</exclusive_app>
in your cc_config.xml, BOINC will suspend computing
whenever foo.exe is running (e.g., a game).
Eventually we might want to put the interface in preferences
instead of cc_config.xml
