This change moves the chain and network parameter definitions, along
with the default client and server ports, to a package for reuse by
other utilities (most notably, tools in the cmd dir). Along with it,
functions commonly used for config parsing and validation are moved to
an internal package since they will also be useful for distributed
tools.
All transactions since the specified block (or the genesis block if
left unspecified) should be included in the result array
Along with this fix, update the help descriptions to mention that the
target confirmations parameter is not considered when including
transactions in the result object. That is, transactions with a
height greater than the height of the lastblock in the result object
are still included.
Fixes#263.
To increase compatibility with Bitcoin Core Wallet, additional fields
were added to and other fields made optional for the listtransactions
and gettransaction results structs. For both, fee was changed to be
optional (including the zero value is allowed).
Rather than disallowing the default account to be renamed as was
proposed in #245 (and implemented in #246), the default account name
is no longer considered a reserved name by the address manager.
Instead, it is simply the initial name used for the first initial
account.
A database upgrade removes any additional aliases for the default
account in the database. This prevents a lookup for some name which
is not an account name from mapping to the default account
unexpectedly (potentially preventing incorrect account usage from the
RPC server due to bad iteraction with default parameters).
All unset account names in a JSON-RPC request are expected to be set
nil by btcjson. This behavior depends on btcsuite/btcd#399.
Additionally, the manager no longer considers the wildcard * to be a
reserved account name. Due to poor API decisions, the RPC server
overloads the meaning of account fields to optionally allow referring
to all accounts at a time, or a single account. This is not a address
manager responsibility, though, as a future cleaner API should not use
multiple differet meanings for the same field across multiple
requests. Therefore, don't burden down future APIs with this quirk
and prevent incorrect wildcard usage from the RPC server.
Closes#245.
This introduce a new internal package to deal with the explicit
clearing of data (such as private keys) in byte slices, byte arrays
(32 and 64-bytes long), and multi-precision "big" integers.
