+has_metadata()
++++bool has_metadata() const; ++
Returns true if this torrent has metadata (either it was started from a .torrent file or the +metadata has been downloaded). The only scenario where this can return false is when the torrent +was started torrent-less (i.e. with just an info-hash and tracker ip). Note that if the torrent +doesn't have metadata, the member get_torrent_info() will throw.
+++std::vector<char> const& metadata() const; ++
metadata() will return a reference to a buffer containing the exact info part of the +.torrent file. This buffer will be valid as long as the torrent is still running. When hashed, +it will produce the same hash as the info-hash.
