It contains simple code that helps BOINC Manager manage the crunching on your PC.
A typical cc_config.xml file contains instructions as to how BOINC Manager should work and what preferences you have.
For instance, this is my current cc_config file:
Code: Select all
<cc_config>
<options>
<use_all_gpus>1</use_all_gpus>
<save_stats_days>180</save_stats_days>
<fetch_on_update>1</fetch_on_update>
<report_results_immediately>1</report_results_immediately>
<skip_cpu_benchmarks>1</skip_cpu_benchmarks>
</options>
</cc_config>
If you want to see what is in your cc_config.xml file, then close BOINC Manager and then use File Manager to inspect your hard drive - or you can simply search for the file, using the full name as shown.
Once you find the file, right click on it and open it with Notepad. You can then see what the default code is, and if you want to use any of the above code, then simply cut and paste any of the relevant lines above (between the [options] and [/options] tags) into the same section in your existing cc_config file and then save it. Restart BOINC Manager and your new preferences should take effect.
