I've seen users confused multiple times thinking they
should be using -tor to set their tor proxy and then
finding in horror that they were still connecting to
the IPv4 internet.
Even Jeff guesses wrong about what the knob does, so
I think we should rename it. This leaves the old
knob working, we can pull it out completely in a
later release.
Add support for a Payment Protocol to Bitcoin-Qt.
Payment messages are protocol-buffer encoded and communicated over
http(s), so this adds a dependency on the Google protocol buffer
library, and requires Qt with OpenSSL support.
- move SelectParamsFromCommandLine() from init.cpp to bitcoin.cpp to allow
to use TestNet() for Bitcoin-Qt instead of GetBoolArg("-testnet", false)
- change order in bitcoind.cpp to match bitcoin.cpp functionality
- hamonize error message strings for missing datadir and failing
SelectParamsFromCommandLine() in bitcoin.cpp and bitcoind.cpp
- use TestNet() call in splashscreen.cpp
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
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.
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.
- adds a reindex dialog for Bitcoin-Qt to change -txindex without the need
to supply -reindex
- now also does a -reindex, when removing the -txindex switch
Removed AreInputsStandard from CTransaction, made it a regular function in main.
Moved CTransaction::GetOutputFor to CCoinsViewCache.
Moved GetLegacySigOpCount and GetP2SHSigOpCount out of CTransaction into regular functions in main.
Moved GetValueIn and HaveInputs from CTransaction into CCoinsViewCache.
Moved AllowFree, ClientCheckInputs, CheckInputs, UpdateCoins, and CheckTransaction out of CTransaction and into main.
Moved IsStandard and IsFinal out of CTransaction and put them in main as IsStandardTx and IsFinalTx. Moved GetValueOut out of CTransaction into main. Moved CTxIn, CTxOut, and CTransaction into core.
Added minimum fee parameter to CTxOut::IsDust() temporarily until CTransaction is moved to core.h so that CTxOut needn't know about CTransaction.
Added explicit include of main.h in init.cpp, changed include of init.h to include of main.h in net.cpp.
Added function registration for net.cpp in init.cpp's network initialization.
Removed protocol.cpp's dependency on main.h.
TODO: Remove main.h include in net.cpp.
This will allow each to have its own main(), meaning that we can build a common
base client and simply link in the correct startup object to create the
appropriate binary.
- explicitly set the default of all GetBoolArg() calls
- rework getarg_test.cpp and util_tests.cpp to cover this change
- some indentation fixes
- move macdockiconhandler.h include in bitcoin.cpp to the "our headers"
section
This commit decouples the pMiningKey initialization and shutdown from the RPC
threads.
`getwork` and `getblocktemplate` rely on pMiningKey, and can also be ran
from the debug window in the UI even when the RPC server is not running.
Solves issue #2706.
Write bestblock records in wallets:
* Every 20160 blocks synced, no matter what (before: none during IBD)
* Every 144 blocks after IBD (before: for every block, slow)
* When creating a new wallet
* At shutdown
This should result in far fewer spurious rescans.
At startup, check that the expected genesis is loaded. This should prevent
cases where accidentally a datadir from the wrong network is loaded
(testnet vs mainnet, e.g.).
Bitcoin-Qt could core dump if application initialization failed in certain ways.
I double-fixed this:
1) qt/bitcoin.cpp now shuts down core threads cleanly if AppInit2 returns false
2) init.cpp now exits before StartNode() if strErrors is set (no reason to StartNode if we're just going to exit immediately anyway).
Tested by triggering all of the various ways AppInit2 can fail, either by passing bogus command-line arguments or just recompiling tweaked code to simulate failure.
This is a partial fix for #2480
It is possible to have a wallet.dat file without any bestblock
record at all (if created offline, for example), which - when
loaded into a client with a up-to-date chain - does no rescan and
shows no transactions.
Also make sure to write the current best block after a rescan, so
it isn't necessary twice.
