Now it can't be told if this is was a Windows App before. All Mac design principles are fulfilled and some cosmetics have been applied to suit the native look and feel. The biggest change there is the proper use of the Dock icon which takes the role of the Tray icon on Mac.
The QDoubleSpinBox improves entering of Bitcoin amounts, no two separate fields are required anymore. All functionality and validation effects have been retained; pressing the comma key will be internally translated to a period to keep it consistent throughout the application and eases entering in countries which use the comma as decimal separator.
Additionally, Notificator now supports Growl, Mac's native notification system. This is provided via Apple Script in order to avoid linking to Growl on compile time. Other changes involve encapsulation of Toolbar and Menubar creation, loading of Qt's own translation and some clean up.
Replaced all occurrences of #if* __WXMSW__ with WIN32,
and all occurrences of __WXMAC_OSX__ with MAC_OSX, and made
sure those are defined appropriately in the makefile and bitcoin-qt.pro.
getmemorypool [data]
If [data] is not specified, returns data needed to construct a block to work on:
"version" : block version
"previousblockhash" : hash of current highest block
"transactions" : contents of non-coinbase transactions that should be included in the next block
"coinbasevalue" : maximum allowable input to coinbase transaction, including the generation award and transaction fees
"time" : timestamp appropriate for next block
"bits" : compressed target of next block
If [data] is specified, tries to solve the block and returns true if it was successful.
Instead of encoding the public key inside the signature string, use
key recovery to do verification. This allows 88-character base64-encoded
signature strings instead of 188-character ones.
This replaces the openssl-based base64 encoder and decoder with a more
efficient internal one. Tested against the rfc4648 test vectors.
Decoder is based on JoelKatz' version.
Makefiles now build bitcoind only.
qmake/make in top-level directory is used to build Bitcoin QT
Deleted almost all #ifdef GUI from the code (left one possibly controversial one)
Deleted xpm/ files.
