This commit modifies the address manager save code to exit when there is
an error creating the file used to store addresses. Previously the error
was only logged leaving the invalid file handle to be used later.
This commit adds code to properly respond to getdata requests for
transactions by fetching them from the transaction pool. Previously, we
advertised newly available transactions, but the code to respond with the
actual transaction was not written yet.
Also, fix a couple of comments and make the pushTxMsg and pushBlockMsg
functions consistent.
This commit is a first pass at improving the logging. It changes a number
of things to improve the readability of the output. The biggest addition
is message summaries for each message type when using the debug logging
level.
There is sitll more to do here such as allowing the level of each
subsystem to be independently specified, syslog support, and allowing the
logging level to be changed run-time.
This commit provides a new flag, --nocheckpoints, to disable built-in
checkpoints.
Checkpoints are used for a number of things such a ensuring
the block chain being downloaded matches various known good blocks,
allowing quicker verification on old blocks since scripts don't have to be
executed, and preventing forks from old blocks, etc.
The block manager handles inventory messges to know which inventory should
be requested based on what is already known and what is already in flight.
So, this commit adds logic to ask the transaction memory pool if the
transaction is already known before requesting it and tracks pending
requests into an in-flight transaction map owned by the block manager.
It also moves the transaction processing into the block manager so the
in-flight map can be properly cleaned.
Also, the loops which only remove a single element and break or return
don't need the extra logic for iteration since they don't continue
iteration after removal.
It is not safe to remove an item from a container/list while iterating the
list without first saving the next pointer since removing the item nils
the internal list element's next pointer.
Rather than showing all errors from ProcessTransaction as a failure, check
if the error is a TxRuleError meaning the transaction was rejected as
opposed to something actually going wrong and log it accordingly.
