Wladimir J. van der Laan	3a174cd400	Fix race condition between starting HTTP server thread and setting EventBase() Split StartHTTPServer into InitHTTPServer and StartHTTPServer to give clients a window to register their handlers without race conditions. Thanks @ajweiss for figuring this out.	9 years ago

Wladimir J. van der Laan	be33f3f50b	Implement RPCTimerHandler for Qt RPC console Implement RPCTimerHandler for Qt RPC console, so that `walletpassphrase` works with GUI and `-server=0`. Also simplify HTTPEvent-related code by using boost::function directly.	9 years ago
Wladimir J. van der Laan	40b556d374	evhttpd implementation - Replace usage of boost::asio with [libevent2](http://libevent.org/). boost::asio is not part of C++11, so unlike other boost there is no forwards-compatibility reason to stick with it. Together with #4738 (convert json_spirit to UniValue), this rids Bitcoin Core of the worst offenders with regard to compile-time slowness. - Replace spit-and-duct-tape http server with evhttp. Front-end http handling is handled by libevent, a work queue (with configurable depth and parallelism) is used to handle application requests. - Wrap HTTP request in C++ class; this makes the application code mostly HTTP-server-neutral - Refactor RPC to move all http-specific code to a separate file. Theoreticaly this can allow building without HTTP server but with another RPC backend, e.g. Qt's debug console (currently not implemented) or future RPC mechanisms people may want to use. - HTTP dispatch mechanism; services (e.g., RPC, REST) register which URL paths they want to handle. By using a proven, high-performance asynchronous networking library (also used by Tor) and HTTP server, problems such as #5674, #5655, #344 should be avoided. What works? bitcoind, bitcoin-cli, bitcoin-qt. Unit tests and RPC/REST tests pass. The aim for now is everything but SSL support. Configuration options: - `-rpcthreads`: repurposed as "number of work handler threads". Still defaults to 4. - `-rpcworkqueue`: maximum depth of work queue. When this is reached, new requests will return a 500 Internal Error. - `-rpctimeout`: inactivity time, in seconds, after which to disconnect a client. - `-debug=http`: low-level http activity logging	9 years ago
