- some users reported it as weird, that the estimated block count could be
lower than our own nodes block number (which is indeed true and not good)
- this pull adds a new default behaviour, which displays our own block
number as estimated block number, if own >= est. block count
- the pull raises space for nodes block counts in cPeerBlockCounts to 8 to
be more accurate
- also removes a reduntant setNumBlocks() call in RPCConsole and moves
initialisation of numBlocksAtStartup in ClientModel, where it belongs
When the coin database is out of date with the block database, the
best block in it is automatically switched to. This reconnection
process can take time, so allow it to be interrupted.
This also stops block connection as soon as shutdown is requested,
leading to a faster shutdown.
This problem is like earth (mostly harmless). After/during a
-reindex, it means the statistics about the last block file
reported in debug.log are always of blk00000.dat instead of the
last file. Apart from that, it means a few more database entries
need to be read when finding a file to append to the first time.
- even if we are allowed to fail pre-allocating, it's better to check
for sufficient space before calling AllocateFileRange() and if we
are out of disk space return with error()
- the above change allows us to remove the CheckDiskSpace() check
in CBlock::AcceptBlock()
In case a reorganisation fails, the internal state could become
inconsistent (memory only). Previously, a cache per block connect
or disconnect action was used, so blocks could not be applied in
a partial way. Extend this to a cache for the entire reorganisation,
making it atomic entirely. This also simplifies the code a bit.
- fix ThreadSafeMessageBox always displays error icon
- allow to specify MSG_ERROR / MSG_WARNING or MSG_INFORMATION without a
custom caption / title
- allow to specify CClientUIInterface::ICON_ERROR / ICON_WARNING and
ICON_INFORMATION (which is default) as message box icon
- remove CClientUIInterface::OK from ThreadSafeMessageBox-calls, as
the OK button will be set as default, if none is specified
- prepend "Bitcoin - " to used captions
- rename BitcoinGUI::error() -> BitcoinGUI::message() and add function
documentation
- change all style parameters and enum flags to unsigned
- update code to use that new API
- update Client- and WalletModel to use new BitcoinGUI::message() and
rename the classes error() method into message()
- include the possibility to supply the wanted icon for messages from
Client- and WalletModel via "style" parameter
When a transaction A is in the memory pool, while a transaction B
(which shares an input with A) gets accepted into a block, A was
kept forever in the memory pool.
This commit adds a CTxMemPool::removeConflicts method, which
removes transactions that conflict with a given transaction, and
all their children.
This results in less transactions in the memory pool, and faster
construction of new blocks.
These flags select features to be enabled/disabled during script
evaluation/checking, instead of several booleans passed along.
Currently these flags are defined:
* SCRIPT_VERIFY_P2SH: enable BIP16-style subscript evaluation
* SCRIPT_VERIFY_STRICTENC: enforce strict adherence to pubkey/sig encoding standards.
- remove an unwanted ";" at the end of the ~CCoinsView() destructor
- in FindBlockPos() and FindUndoPos() only call fclose(), is file is open
- fix an error string in the CBlockUndo class
Flushes the blktree/ and coins/ databases, and reindexes the
block chain files, as if their contents was loaded via -loadblock.
Based on earlier work by Jeff Garzik.
