Use case: TryCreateDirectory(GetDataDir() / "blocks" / "index") would
fail if the blocks directory was not explicitly created before.
The line that did so was in a weird location and could be removed as a
result.
This changes the logging categories to boolean flags instead of strings.
This simplifies the acceptance testing by avoiding accessing a scoped
static thread local pointer to a thread local set of strings. It
eliminates the only use of boost::thread_specific_ptr outside of
lockorder debugging.
This change allows log entries to be directed to multiple categories
and makes it easy to change the logging flags at runtime (e.g. via
an RPC, though that isn't done by this commit.)
It also eliminates the fDebug global.
Configuration of unknown logging categories now produces a warning.
Pass parent wrapper directly instead of obfuscation key. This
makes it possible for other databases which re-use this code
to use other properties from the database.
Add a namespace dbwrapper_private for private functions to be used
only in dbwrapper.h/cpp and dbwrapper_tests.
Using throw() specifications in function signatures is not only
not required in C++, it is considered deprecated for
[various reasons](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1055387/throw-keyword-in-functions-signature).
It is not implemented by any of the common C++ compilers. The usage is
also inconsistent with the rest of the source code.
Adds an `obfuscate` parameter to `CLevelDBWrapper` and makes use of it
for all new chainstate stores built via `CCoinsViewDB`. Also adds an
`Xor` method to `CDataStream`.
Thanks to @sipa@laanwj@pstratem@dexX7@KyrosKrane@gmaxwell.
Add error checking to CLevelDBWrapper for errors from
leveldb::DestroyDB(). Without it, if unlink() or DeleteFileW() fail to
delete files, they will fail silent. If they fail to delete any files,
CLevelDBWrapper will silently open and read the existing database.
Typically any permissions issues would be caught by leveldb as it churns
through many files as part of its compaction process, but it is
conceivable that this could cause problems on Windows with anti-virus
and indexing software.
contrib/devtools/fix-copyright-headers.py script to be able to perform this maintenance task with ease during the rest of the year, every year. Modifications to contrib/devtools/README.md to document what fix-copyright-headers.py does.
After the tinyformat switch sprintf() family functions support passing
actual std::string objects.
Remove unnecessary c_str calls (236 of them) in logging and formatting.
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.
Flushes the blktree/ and coins/ databases, and reindexes the
block chain files, as if their contents was loaded via -loadblock.
