- rename wxMessageBox, remove redundant arguments to noui/qtui calls
- also, add flag to force blocking, modal dialog box for disk space warning etc
- clarify function naming
- no more special MessageBox needed from AppInit2, as window object is created before calling AppInit2
Do not automatically change the wallet format unless the user takes an
explicit action that implies an upgrade (encrypting, for now), or uses
-walletupgrade.
-walletupgrade optionally takes an integer argument: the client version
up to which upgrading is allowed. Without an argument, it is upgraded
to latest supported version. If an argument to -walletupgrade is
provided at the time the wallet is created, the new wallet will initially
not use features beyond that version.
Third, the current wallet version number is reported in getinfo.
-checkblocks now takes a numeric argument: the number of blocks that must
be verified at the end of the chain. Default is 2500, and 0 means all
blocks.
-checklevel specifies how thorough the verification must be:
0: only check whether the block exists on disk
1: verify block validity (default)
2: verify transaction index validity
3: check transaction hashes
4: check whether spent txouts were spent within the main chain
5: check whether all prevouts are marked spent
6: check whether spent txouts were spent by a valid transaction that consumes them
Design goals:
* Only keep a limited number of addresses around, so that addr.dat does not grow without bound.
* Keep the address tables in-memory, and occasionally write the table to addr.dat.
* Make sure no (localized) attacker can fill the entire table with his nodes/addresses.
See comments in addrman.h for more detailed information.
This introduces CNetAddr and CService, respectively wrapping an
(IPv6) IP address and an IP+port combination. This functionality used
to be part of CAddress, which also contains network flags and
connection attempt information. These extra fields are however not
always necessary.
These classes, along with logic for creating connections and doing
name lookups, are moved to netbase.{h,cpp}, which does not depend on
headers.h.
Furthermore, CNetAddr is mostly IPv6-ready, though IPv6
functionality is not yet enabled for the application itself.
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.
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.
* A new class CKeyStore manages private keys, and script.cpp depends on access to CKeyStore.
* A new class CWallet extends CKeyStore, and contains all former wallet-specific globals; CWallet depends on script.cpp, not the other way around.
* Wallet-specific functions in CTransaction/CTxIn/CTxOut (GetDebit, GetCredit, GetChange, IsMine, IsFromMe), are moved to CWallet, taking their former 'this' argument as an explicit parameter
* CWalletTx objects know which CWallet they belong to, for convenience, so they have their own direct (and caching) GetDebit/... functions.
* Some code was moved from CWalletDB to CWallet, such as handling of reserve keys.
* Main.cpp keeps a set of all 'registered' wallets, which should be informed about updates to the block chain, and does not have any notion about any 'main' wallet. Function in main.cpp that require a wallet (such as GenerateCoins), take an explicit CWallet* argument.
* The actual CWallet instance used by the application is defined in init.cpp as "CWallet* pwalletMain". rpc.cpp and ui.cpp use this variable.
* Functions in main.cpp and db.cpp that are not used by other modules are marked static.
* The code for handling the 'submitorder' message is removed, as it not really compatible with the idea that a node is independent from the wallet(s) connected to it, and obsolete anyway.
Use non-blocking connects, and a select() call to wait a predefined
time (5s by default, but configurable with -timeout) for either
success or failure. This allows much more connections to be tried
per time unit.
Based on a patch by phantomcircuit.
When rescanning, if the scanned transaction is already in the wallet, it
is skipped. However, if someone sends a transaction, does not wait for
confirmation, switches wallets, waits for a block that contains his original
transaction, and switches wallets again, a rescan will leave his wallet
transaction (which has no merkle branch, so no confirmations) untouched.
* A new option -dns is introduced that enables name lookups in
-connect and -addnode, which is not enabled by default,
as it may be considered a security issue.
* A Lookup function is added that supports retrieving one or
more addresses based on a host name
* CAddress constructors (optionally) support name lookups.
* The different places in the source code that did name lookups
are refactored to use NameLookup or CAddress instead (dns seeding,
irc server lookup, getexternalip, ...).
* Removed ToStringLog() from CAddress, and switched to ToString(),
since it was empty.
there is no internal modification of any file in this commit
files are moved into directories according to established standards in
sourcecode distribution; these directories contain:
src - Files that are used in constructing the executable binaries,
but are not installed.
doc - Files in HTML and text format that document usage, quirks of
the implementation, and contributor checklists.
locale - Files that contain human language translation of strings
used in the program
contrib - Files contributed from distributions or other third party
implementing scripts and auxiliary programs
