This allows fun stuff such as `bitcoin --help | less`, and more
easy piping to files.
Looking at other tools such as bash, gcc, they all send their help
text to stdout.
These command are a leftover from send-to-IP transactions, which have been
removed a long time ago.
Also removes CNode::mapRequests and CNode::PushRequests, as these were
only used for the mentioned commands.
As the code was before, toHTML added empty elements to mapValue to check for their existance. Now first it check for their existance and then for their non-emptiness.
Removed a duplicated identical if
There are two equal ifs, one inside another. If the first one is true, then the second one is true.
Due to a bug in the implementation of MakeSameSize(), using OP_AND, OP_OR, or OP_XOR with signed values of unequal size will result in the sign-value becoming part of the smaller integer, with nonsensical results. This patch documents the unexpected behavior and provides the basis of a solution should decision be made to fix the bug in the future.
-detachdb option. Useful for upgrading, for example. Lets you use fast stops usually, but force a detach when needed. Also, allows
you to do a fast stop in a system normally configured for fast stops.
- I checked every occurance of strprintf() in the code and used %u, where
unsigned vars are used
- the change to GetByte() was made, as ip is an unsigned char
Matt pointed out some time ago that there existed a minor DOS
attack where a node in its initial block download could be wedged
by an overwrite attack in a fork created between checkpoints before
a time where BIP30 was enforced. Now that the BIP30 timestamp
is irreversibly past the check can be more aggressive and apply to
all blocks except the two historic violations.
- Paging using PageUp / PageDown now works when entry widget has focus
- Typing or pasting while the messages widget has focus auto-selects entry widget
We're in a wholly different world now, C++-compiler-wise.
Current std::stringstream implementations don't have the stated problem anymore,
and are just as fast as CDataStream.
The #ifdef'd block does not even compile anymore; CDataStream constructor changed,
and missing some std::. Also timing in whole seconds is also way too granular
to say anything sensible in such microbenchmarks. Just remove it,
it can always be found again in git history.
