This patch introduces a GUIUtil class that is used when setting up the 2 tables we have so far on the Qt-GUI.
In the past you could only resize the last column, which has BTC amounts from the right border of the column header, something that was rather unnatural.
If a new table were ever to be added to the interface, fixing the last columns resizing behavior is rather simple. Just look at how we initialize here a TableViewLastColumnResizingFixer object when setting up the table header's behavior, and then how we override the resize event of the component (can be the table, or the dialog) and we invoke columnResizingFixer->stretchColumnWidth(columnIndex);
- remove btc address length from address validator
- add an optional btc address check in validated line edit that defaults
to off and is used in GUIUtil::setupAddressWidget()
- an isAcceptable() check is added to validated line edit on focus out
which only kicks in, when a validator is used with that widget
- remove an isAcceptable() check from sendcoinsentry.cpp
- remove obsolete attributes from ui files, which are set by calling
GUIUtil::setupAddressWidget()
- move some more things to GUIUtil::setupAddressWidget() and remove them
from normal code e.g. placeholder text
- adds a nice and well formated dialog, which displays our -? help message
(all options/paramaters)
- moves aboutdialog.cpp/h to the new utilitydialog
- move GUI shutdown window to utilitydialog
Only messages for now, executable names and other file names
can be changed later if necessary and safe.
Do not do an all-sweeping change. Some occurences of Bitcoin-Qt need to
be kept:
- Applicationname: this is used to determine the registry entry names,
we don't want to lose settings over a silly name change.
- Where it refers to the executable name instead of the product name.
Use misc methods of avoiding unnecesary header includes.
Replace int typedefs with int##_t from stdint.h.
Replace PRI64[xdu] with PRI[xdu]64 from inttypes.h.
Normalize QT_VERSION ifs where possible.
Resolve some indirect dependencies as direct ones.
Remove extern declarations from .cpp files.
Also update URI parsing to fill in this field.
Note that the message is not currently used in any way with the client.
It should be stored with the transaction.
This adds an executable `bitcoin-rpc` that only serves as a Bitcoin RPC
client.
The commit does not remove RPC functionality from the `bitcoind` yet,
this functionality should be deprecated but is left for a later version
to give users some time to switch.
Replaces the validation check for "amount == 0" with an isDust check,
so very small output amounts are caught before the wallet
is unlocked, a transaction is created, etc.
- move the code for saving and restoring window positions from BitcoinGUI
to GUIUtil, make it more generic and also use it for saving/restoring
debug window positions
This adds an introduction screen that is shown when the client is first
started in which the user can choose a data directory.
It is also possible to force the intro screen to appear using command
line argument `-choosedatadir`.
The user is warned that the client will download and store 10Gb of data.
The intro screen shows how much space is available on the device that
contains the chosen directory and warns if this is less than the 10Gb.
To make it possible to translate the introduction dialog, the initialization
sequence is changed so that translations are
loaded before the data directory. This has the by-effect that it is
no longer possible to specify a language in bitcoin.conf inside the data
directory.
This commit squashes all the changes in the Qt5 branch
relative to master.
Backward compatibility with Qt4 is retained.

- as QClipboard::Selection isn't available on Windows ensure that the
correct mode is called, but sill allow selection for e.g. X11
- start conversion from QCoreApplication::instance() to qApp in
guiutil.cpp (I intend to harmonize this all over the source with my Qt5
compatibility pull)
- try to enforce the same style to all Qt related files
- remove unneeded includes from the files
- add missing Q_OBJECT, QT_BEGIN_NAMESPACE / QT_END_NAMESPACE
- prepares for a pull-req to include Qt5 compatibility
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.
On Linux/Mac the command-line options were printed to stderr when the button
was pressed in the debug window, resulting in confusion. This is fixed
in this commit by adding a separate method.
The option to open the debug logfile from the debug window was implemented only for
windows. By using `QDesktopServices::openUrl` it now works on any platform.
Implemented without having to touch any translation: by listening for QEvent::ToolTipChange events, then rewriting the tooltips to prefix `<qt/>` if it is not yet rich text.
- converted openBictoinAction to toggleHideAction
- put GUIUtil functions into a namespace instead of a class
- put window-related functions together in optionsdialog
Reasoning:
- toggle is more typical behaviour
- it's more functional
- better UX
The typical issue with toggling visibility is that when a window
is obscured by other windows but in the 'shown' state, hiding it
isn't what you want. I've added an 'isObscured' function to GUIUtil
that checks several pixels in the window to see if they are visible
on the desktop so that an obscured but shown window can be raised.
