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.
Selecting the button for a pages was going through bitcoingui->walletframe->walletview->bitcoingui.
Because of this, the actions for the pages had to be exposed on the BitcoinGUI object.
- rename reportError() into message() to be in line with our default
message() signal/slot naming (and can be used for all types of messages)
- rename some QStrings to not collide with message() function
- add a missing message for malformed URIs that IS also used in BitcoinGUI
- fix / extend some comments and misc style fixes
There were too many levels of indirection here, and the functionality of
walletframe and walletstack can easily be merged. This commit
merges the two which cuts a lot of lines of boilerplate code.
- make processPaymentRequest() use our own HTML-escaping function from
GUIUtil
- make string "application/bitcoin-payment" a constant (below similar
constant strings in the .cpp file)
- clear(): clear all UI elements (for secure and insecure payments)
- setValue(): only modify UI elements, which need to be set (for secure
or insecure payments)
- when closing the client with an open debug window, that window could
become stuck/unsuable (it was still shown wherea the main window was
hidden already)
- fix this by hiding the debug window, when quitting the the client
- remove some unneeded translatable strings from sendcoinsentry.ui file and
rename some elements for better readability
- optimize string prorcessing in SendCoinsDialog::on_sendButton_clicked()
- make all UI labels for secure payments plain text and move the settings
to sendcoinsentry.ui file
- remove unneeded button and default button definiton from warning message
boxes
- remove fixed font-size when sending coins to an address with label and
use monospace font for addresses
- make BitcoinGUI::showPaymentACK() use a reference for msg and use our
own GUIUtil::HtmlEscape() function
- ensure QTimer usage in clientmodel is the same as in walletmodel
- remove an unneeded debug message in walletframe
- flag some parameters as unused in DebugMessageHandler()
- small code formatting changes
- ensure message boxes are shown in center of our main window, not
centered on the users desktop
- always prefer user supplied titles for message boxes over the functions
defaults (fixes a bug, where transaction info messages did not contain
information, if it was incoming or outgoing)
- rename URL into URI in paymentserver where correct
- add some missing Qt-coding-stuff in paymentserver
- change QSpinBox to QLineEdit as base for BitcoinAmountField in .ui files
(as this is the result when converting the BAF back into base)
- remove some c_str() and replace with QString::fromStdString()
- remove several new-lines
- remove unneeded spaces
- indentation fixes
- prepend "Bitcoin-Qt" in front of debug.log entries, which come from Qt
- move DebugMessageHandler installation upwards to the event handler
installation, which fits much better
Correctly use the purpose of addresses that are added after the start
of the client. Addresses with purpose "refund" and "change" should not
be visible in the GUI. This is now handled correctly.
- extend PaymentServer with setOptionsModel() and rework initNetManager()
to make use of that
- fix all other places in the code to use display unit from options and no
hard-coded unit
With an encrypted wallet the GUI was prompting for a passphrase every time
the user requested a new address. This is unnecessary, increases the
exposure to keyboard sniffers, and discourages using fresh addresses for
every transaction.
Instead only prompt for a passphrase when the keypool runs out, also call
the new address function with the flag that prevents reuse.
Thanks to AlexNagy on IRC for pointing this out and who wouldn't take any
lip from a curmudgeonly developer and insisted on what he knew to be true.
WalletView:
- add new signal showNormalIfMinimized()
- emit the new signal in handleURI() to fix a bug, preventing the main
window to show up when using bitcoin: URIs
WalletStack:
- connect the showNormalIfMinimized() signal from WalletView with the
showNormalIfMinimized() slot in BitcoinGUI
- rework setCurrentWallet() to return a bool
- add check for valid walletModel in addWallet()
- add missing gui attribute initialisation in constructor
WalletFrame:
- remove unused or unneded class attributes gui and clientModel
- add a check for valid clientModel in setClientModel()
General:
- small code formatting changes
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
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.
