GetTotalBlocksEstimate is no longer used and it was the only thing
the checkpoint tests were testing.
Since checkpoints are on their way out it makes more sense to remove
the test file than to cook up a new pointless test.
Instead of only checking height to decide whether to disable script checks,
actually check whether a block is an ancestor of a checkpoint, up to which
headers have been validated. This means that we don't have to prevent
accepting a side branch anymore - it will be safe, just less fast to
do.
We still need to prevent being fed a multitude of low-difficulty headers
filling up our memory. The mechanism for that is unchanged for now: once
a checkpoint is reached with headers, no headers chain branching off before
that point are allowed anymore.
- Update comments in checkpoints to be doxygen compatible
- Update comments in checkqueue to be doxygen compatible
- Update coins to be doxygen compatible
- Fix comment typo in crypter.h
- Update licenses/copyright dates
Closes#5325#5184#5183#5182
- ensures a consistent usage in header files
- also add a blank line after the copyright header where missing
- also remove orphan new-lines at the end of some files
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.
- remove an unneeded MODAL flag, as MSG_ERROR sets MODAL
- re-order an if-clause in main to have bool checks before a function call
- fix some log messages that used wrong function names
- make a log message use a correct ellipsis
- remove some unneded spaces, brackets and line-breaks
- fix style for adding files in the Qt project
