How to create a DHT node suing version 1.1.1-1+b1

[leoncwu]

I can only use libtorrent version 1.1.1-1+b1 in Debian 9 system. I am not able to build the latest version due to many reasons that I do not have control over. I hope create a DHT node so that I do not need to use a tracker. I did some investigation and put together the following solution, but it cannot pass the compilation.

settings_pack settings;
settings.set_bool(settings_pack::enable_dht, true);
ession s(settings);
dht_settings dht;
dht.privacy_lookups = true;
dht.service_port = 6881;
s.set_dht_settings(dht);
s.start_dht();
int dht_port = s.listen_port();
std::cout << "DHT node listening on port " << dht_port << std::endl;

The compiler complains about the deprecated function s.start_dht(). I am not able to find an alternative way to do this. Can anyone offer some help?

Thank you in advance for your help.

create a settings_pack object (docs) and set enable_dht to true (docs). pass this settings pack into the session constructor.
