Help messages are formatted programmatically with FormatParagraph
in order not to break existing strings in Transifex.
The new format works even if the translation of the strings
modifies the lenght of the message.

Help messages correctly formatted for SVGA text mode (132 chars)
Help messages are formatted programmatically with FormatParagraph
in order not to break existing strings in Transifex.
The new format should work even if the translation of the strings
modifies the lenght of the message.
Fix - syntax error
Correct formatting for 79 chars
Correctly based on C++ functions
Removed spare spaces from option strings
Fix - syntax error
TLS is subject to downgrade attacks when SSLv3 is available, and
SSLv3 has vulnerabilities.
The popular solution is to disable SSLv3. On the web this breaks
some tiny number of very old clients. While Bitcoin RPC shouldn't
be exposed to the open Internet, it also shouldn't be exposed to
really old SSL implementations, so it shouldn't be a major issue
for us to disable SSLv3.
There is more information on the downgrade attacks and disabling
SSLv3 at https://disablessl3.com/ .
Start the RPC server before doing all the (expensive) startup
initialisations like loading the block index. Until the node is ready,
return all calls immediately with a new error signalling "in warmup"
with an appropriate status message (similar to the init message).
This is useful for RPC clients to know that the server is there (e. g.,
they don't have to start it) but not yet available. It is used in
Namecoin and Huntercoin already for some time, and there exists a UI
hooked onto the RPC interface that actively uses this to its advantage.
Split up util.cpp/h into:
- string utilities (hex, base32, base64): no internal dependencies, no dependency on boost (apart from foreach)
- money utilities (parsesmoney, formatmoney)
- time utilities (gettime*, sleep, format date):
- and the rest (logging, argument parsing, config file parsing)
The latter is basically the environment and OS handling,
and is stripped of all utility functions, so we may want to
rename it to something else than util.cpp/h for clarity (Matt suggested
osinterface).
Breaks dependency of sha256.cpp on all the things pulled in by util.
The size limit makes a lot of sense for the server, as it never has to
accept very large data.
The client, however, can request arbitrary amounts of data with
`listtransactions` on a large wallet.
Fixes#4604.
This commit removes all the unnecessary dependencies (key, core,
netbase, sync, ...) from bitcoin-cli.
To do this it shards the chain parameters into BaseParams, which
contains just the RPC port and data directory (as used by utils and
bitcoin-cli) and Params, with the rest.
As it says on the tin. It was deprecated in version 0.9, and
at some point it should be removed.
Removes the dependency of bitcoind on libbitcoin-cli.a. Move
some functions that used to be shared but are now only used in
bitcoin-cli.cpp to that file.
After this change, an error is printed (and exit code 1 is returned)
when the user tries to send RPC commands using bitcoind.
Adds a `-version` or `--version` option to print just the version
of the program for bitcoind, bitcoin-cli and bitcoin-qt.
Also make it that `-help` can be used to display the help (as well as
existing `--help`). Up to now, `-help` was the only option that didn't
work with either one or two dashes.
Remove unnecessary dependencies for bitcoin-cli
(leveldb, berkelydb, wallet, RPC server)
Build system changes:
- split libbitcoin.a into libbitcoin_common.a, libbitcoin_server.a and
libbitcoin_cli.a
Code changes (movement only):
- split up HelpMessage into HelpMessage in init.cpp and HelpMessageCli
in rpcclient.cpp
- move uiInterface from init.cpp to util.cpp
The SelectParamsFromCommandLine call was missing in bitcoin-cli,
which caused `-testnet` and `-regtest` to be ignored. Add this
call just like in bitcoind.cpp.
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.
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.
This adds an executable `bitcoin-rpc` that only serves as a Bitcoin RPC
client.
The commit does not remove RPC functionality from the `bitcoind` yet,
this functionality should be deprecated but is left for a later version
to give users some time to switch.
