- fixes src\net.cpp:1601: Error:invalid conversion from 'void*' to
'const char*' [-fpermissive] in a setsockopt() call on Win32 that was
found by using MinGW 4.8.1 compiler suite
The key refactor changed the way unencrypted private keys with compressed
public key are stored in the wallet. Apparently older versions relied on
this to verify the correctness of stored keys.
Note that earlier pre-release versions do risk creating wallets that can
not be opened by 0.8.3 and earlier.
use std::string instead of psz for WalletFile
only allow wallets within $DATADIR
Use strWalletFile in salvage/recover
fix: remove unused variable pszWalletFile
move strWalletFile to init.h/init.cpp
avoid conversion of strWalletfile to c-string
dumpwallet: produce a dump of all keys in a wallet, in a format
compatible with Bitcoin Wallet for Android and Multibit.
importwallet: import such a dump
Compute safe lower bounds on the birth times of all wallet keys. For
pool keys or keys with metadata, the actually stored birth time is
used. For all others, the birth times are inferred from the wallet
transactions.
This function finds all keys affected by a particular output script,
supporting everything ExtractDestinations supports (pay-to-pubkey,
pay-to-pubkeyhash, multisig) and recurses into subscripts (P2SH).
In case no database exists yet, and -txindex(=1) is passed, we currently first
check whether fTxIndex differs from -txindex (and ask the user to reindex in
that case), and only afterwards initialize the database. By swapping these
around (the initialization is a no-op in case the database already exists),
we allow it to be born in txindex mode, without warning.
That also means we don't need to check -reindex anymore, as the wiping/reinit
of the databases happens before checking.
Refactor keytime:
* Key metadata is kept in a CWallet::mapKeyMetadata (std::map<CKeyId,CKeyMetadata>).
* When generating a new key, time is put in that map, and new key is written.
* AddKeyPubKey and AddCryptedKey do not take a creation time argument, but instead
pull it from that map, if it exists there.
Bugfix:
* AddKeyPubKey and AddCryptedKey in CWallet didn't override the CKeyStore
definition anymore. This is fixed, as they no longed need the nCreationTime
argument now.
Also a few related other changes:
* Metadata can be overwritten.
* Only GenerateNewKey calls GetTime(), as it's the only place where we know for
sure a key was not constructed earlier.
* When the nTimeFirstKey is known to be inaccurate, it is set to the value 1
(instead of 0, which would mean unknown).
* Use CPubKey instead of std::vector<unsigned char> where possible.
The new class is accessed via the Params() method and holds
most things that vary between main, test and regtest networks.
The regtest mode has two purposes, one is to run the
bitcoind/bitcoinj comparison tool which compares two separate
implementations of the Bitcoin protocol looking for divergence.
The other is that when run, you get a local node which can mine
a single block instantly, which is highly convenient for testing
apps during development as there's no need to wait 10 minutes for
a block on the testnet.
This adds an introduction screen that is shown when the client is first
started in which the user can choose a data directory.
It is also possible to force the intro screen to appear using command
line argument `-choosedatadir`.
The user is warned that the client will download and store 10Gb of data.
The intro screen shows how much space is available on the device that
contains the chosen directory and warns if this is less than the 10Gb.
To make it possible to translate the introduction dialog, the initialization
sequence is changed so that translations are
loaded before the data directory. This has the by-effect that it is
no longer possible to specify a language in bitcoin.conf inside the data
directory.
