Just tested this with current 2.7.7, started MLDonkey in a clean dir, started a download, waited until download was finished 50%, changed temp_directory and restarted MLDonkey. The download finished and was committed without problems. So I guess this bug was silently fixed in the meantime.

Changing temp directory works fine. The files keep downloading in the appropriate temp dir, so the files must have some notion about what temp dir they're using. It is only during committ that there's an actual issue.

Consider it a feature request then? It's actually very useful if diskspace becomes an issue. (that's when I've needed it).

MLDonkey only supports one temp directory, so downloading files
have no information about "their" temp dir, they use the current
setting. So changing this during runtime will have bad effects,
it is not supported.

New files committed get stored in the new temp dir, but when the old files which are already being download which are using the old temp dir are getting committed, mlnet does not know from where to copy the files, and the files just sit there until they're copied over manually and mlnet is restarted.

Downloads should 'know' where their temp dir is.
