redeemScripts >520bytes can't be spent due to the
MAX_SCRIPT_ELEMENT_SIZE limit; previously the addmultisigaddress and
createmultisig RPC calls would let you violate that limit unknowingly.
Also made the wallet code itself check the redeemScript prior to adding
it to the wallet, which in the (rare) instance that a user has added an
invalid oversized redeemScript to their wallet causes an error on
startup. The affected key isn't added to the wallet; other keys are
unaffected.
We were losing information about sent/received by overriding the
category in case of a conflicted transaction.
Hence, remove the "conflicted" category.
Conflicted status of a transaction can still be determined by looking
for confirmations<0.
Adds a "walletconflicts" array to transaction info; if
a wallet transaction is mutated, the alternate transaction id
or ids are reported there (usually the array will be empty).
Metadata from the original transaction is copied to the mutant,
so the transaction time and "from" account of the mutant are
reported correctly.
Extend CMerkleTx::GetDepthInMainChain with the concept of
a "conflicted" transaction-- a transaction generated by the wallet
that is not in the main chain or in the mempool, and, therefore,
will likely never be confirmed.
GetDepthInMainChain() now returns -1 for conflicted transactions
(0 for unconfirmed-but-in-the-mempool, and >1 for confirmed).
This makes getbalance, getbalance '*', and listunspent all agree when there are
mutated transactions in the wallet.
Before:
listunspent: one 49BTC output
getbalance: 96 BTC (change counted twice)
getbalance '*': 46 BTC (spends counted twice)
After: all agree, 49 BTC available to spend.
This allows getting raw transaction data from the wallet even if the
transaction is no longer in the blockchain / mempool (for example if it
got orphaned due to malleability abuse).
contrib/devtools/fix-copyright-headers.py script to be able to perform this maintenance task with ease during the rest of the year, every year. Modifications to contrib/devtools/README.md to document what fix-copyright-headers.py does.
Currently it is only possible to use `walletpassphrase` to unlock the
wallet when bitcoin is started in server mode.
Almost everything that manipulates the wallet in the RPC console
needs the wallet to be unlocked and is thus unusable without -server.
This is pretty unintuitive to me, and I'm sure it's even more confusing
to users.
Solve this with a very minimal change: by making the GUI start a
dummy RPC thread just to handle timeouts.
- replaces a pwalletMain->IsLocked() check
- in keypoolrefill init kpSize to 0 as we have the logic to determine max
kpSize in pwalletMain->TopUpKeyPool() anyway
Where to place `getinfo` is a difficult issue
as it shows information from the wallet, net and
block chain. However, I moved it out of rpcwallet
as the command needs also to be available without
wallet.
Split bitcoinrpc up into
- rpcserver: bitcoind RPC server
- rpcclient: bitcoin-cli RPC client
- rpcprotocol: shared common HTTP/JSON-RPC protocol code
One step towards making bitcoin-cli independent from the rest
of the code, and thus a smaller executable that doesn't have to
be linked against leveldb.
This commit only does code movement, there are no functional changes.
Based on the proposal, update the help message of rpc methods
- strings arguments are in double quotes rather than square brackets
- numeric arguments have no quotes (and no default value)
- optional parameters are surrounded by round brackets
- json arguments are strings but don't use double quotes
Added 3 sections for the details
- Arguments: lists each argument, it's type, required or not, a default, and a description
- Result: The method result, with json format if applicable, type, and a description
- Examples: examples calls using bitcoin-cli and curl for json rpc call
Problems
- maybe this is too verbose
- lines might be too long
- description are not good or complete
- examples may be too much
Use misc methods of avoiding unnecesary header includes.
Replace int typedefs with int##_t from stdint.h.
Replace PRI64[xdu] with PRI[xdu]64 from inttypes.h.
Normalize QT_VERSION ifs where possible.
Resolve some indirect dependencies as direct ones.
Remove extern declarations from .cpp files.
- fix crash with walletpassphrase by checking if RPC server is running and
give a friendly error message how to fix this (fixes#3100)
- add 3 new RPCErrorCodes RPC_SERVER_NOT_STARTED, RPC_NODE_ALREADY_ADDED
and RCP_NODE_NOT_ADDED (I checked the source to not use a number already
in use for RPC_SERVER_NOT_STARTED)
- use the new codes where needed / missing
- add missing use of RPC_INVALID_PARAMETER
This removes a few unused CBlockLocator methods, and moves the
construction and fork-finding logic to CChain (which can do these
more efficiently, as it has a height-indexable chain available).
It also makes CBlockLocator independent from the validation code.
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.
Straight refactor, so mapAddressBook stores a CAddressBookData
(which just contains a std::string) instead of a std::string.
Preparation for payment protocol work, which will add the notion
of refund addresses to the address book.
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.
