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.
Replaces the validation check for "amount == 0" with an isDust check,
so very small output amounts are caught before the wallet
is unlocked, a transaction is created, etc.
- update translation master files
- include current translations from Transifex
- add several new languages
- fix a bug in bitcoin.qrc, which prevents some languages from beeing used
(wrong file extension .ts instead of .qm was used)
- move the code for saving and restoring window positions from BitcoinGUI
to GUIUtil, make it more generic and also use it for saving/restoring
debug window positions
- it was possible to trigger an infinite loop in FreespaceChecker::check() by
simply removing the drive letter on Windows (which leads to an infinite
loop in the FreespaceChecker thread)
- this was caused by not checking if we make progress with
parentDir.parent_path()
use std::string instead of psz for WalletFile
only allow wallets within $DATADIR
Use strWalletFile in salvage/recover
fix: remove unused variable pszWalletFile
move strWalletFile to init.h/init.cpp
avoid conversion of strWalletfile to c-string
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.
This adds an introduction screen that is shown when the client is first
started in which the user can choose a data directory.
It is also possible to force the intro screen to appear using command
line argument `-choosedatadir`.
The user is warned that the client will download and store 10Gb of data.
The intro screen shows how much space is available on the device that
contains the chosen directory and warns if this is less than the 10Gb.
To make it possible to translate the introduction dialog, the initialization
sequence is changed so that translations are
loaded before the data directory. This has the by-effect that it is
no longer possible to specify a language in bitcoin.conf inside the data
directory.
- adds a reindex dialog for Bitcoin-Qt to change -txindex without the need
to supply -reindex
- now also does a -reindex, when removing the -txindex switch
Removed AreInputsStandard from CTransaction, made it a regular function in main.
Moved CTransaction::GetOutputFor to CCoinsViewCache.
Moved GetLegacySigOpCount and GetP2SHSigOpCount out of CTransaction into regular functions in main.
Moved GetValueIn and HaveInputs from CTransaction into CCoinsViewCache.
Moved AllowFree, ClientCheckInputs, CheckInputs, UpdateCoins, and CheckTransaction out of CTransaction and into main.
Moved IsStandard and IsFinal out of CTransaction and put them in main as IsStandardTx and IsFinalTx. Moved GetValueOut out of CTransaction into main. Moved CTxIn, CTxOut, and CTransaction into core.
Added minimum fee parameter to CTxOut::IsDust() temporarily until CTransaction is moved to core.h so that CTxOut needn't know about CTransaction.
- harmonize BitcoinGUI::setClientModel() and RPCConsole::setClientModel()
- now RPCConsole::setClientModel() also includes a direct call to
setNumBlocks()
- this directly sets up all GUI elements that have testnet special-casing
without first setting up main net stuff and changing afterwards (titles,
icons etc.)
- also fixes 2 wrong icons shown during testnet usage on our toolbar
- explicitly set the default of all GetBoolArg() calls
- rework getarg_test.cpp and util_tests.cpp to cover this change
- some indentation fixes
- move macdockiconhandler.h include in bitcoin.cpp to the "our headers"
section
This commit squashes all the changes in the Qt5 branch
relative to master.
Backward compatibility with Qt4 is retained.

A green testnet splashscreen with a normal, orange dock icon looks strange and can confuse users.

Bitcoin-Qt could core dump if application initialization failed in certain ways.
I double-fixed this:
1) qt/bitcoin.cpp now shuts down core threads cleanly if AppInit2 returns false
2) init.cpp now exits before StartNode() if strErrors is set (no reason to StartNode if we're just going to exit immediately anyway).
Tested by triggering all of the various ways AppInit2 can fail, either by passing bogus command-line arguments or just recompiling tweaked code to simulate failure.
This is a partial fix for #2480
This value gets stale really quickly, do not hardcode it into a message.
Completely remove it for now.
Later on, a mechanism will be added to determine fees based on the mempool.
Closes#2576
