Many changes:
* Do not use 'getblocks', but 'getheaders', and use it to build a headers tree.
* Blocks are fetched in parallel from all available outbound peers, using a
limited moving window. When one peer stalls the movement of the window, it is
disconnected.
* No more orphan blocks. At all. We only ever request a block for which we have
verified the headers, and store it to disk immediately. This means that a
disk-fill attack would require PoW.
* Require protocol version 31800 for every peer (released in december 2010).
* No more syncnode (we sync from everyone we can, though limited to 1 during
initial *headers* sync).
* Introduce some extra named constants, comments and asserts.
6fd546d Remove CChainParams::NetworkID() (jtimon)
cc97210 Add fTestnetToBeDeprecatedFieldRPC to CChainParams (jtimon)
e11712d Move checkpoint data selection to chainparams (jtimon)
6de50c3 qt: add network-specific style object (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
Mainly cleanups: Gets rid of isTestNet everywhere, by keeping track
of network-specific theming in a central place.
Also makes GUI no longer dependent on the network ID enumeration, which
alleviates concerns about #4802.
It's strange to be able to close these windows while there is work
in progress.
Also set Qt::WA_DeleteOnClose on both windows to make sure that they
are deleted eventually, no matter what happens.
bbad683 [Qt] simplify return code and return values in txtablemodel (Philip Kaufmann)
21f1516 [Qt] add all used colors in txtablemodel to guiconstants (Philip Kaufmann)
2c2cc5d Remove some unnecessary c_strs() in logging and the GUI (Philip Kaufmann)
f7d0a86 netbase: Use .data() instead of .c_str() on binary string (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
- also fixes indentation in one file (auto fixed by Qt Designer)
- removes several default parameters, which are not needed in the files
- related to #4840 (but not intended as fix for a no-bug)
1e4f87f Use memcmp for uint256 equality/inequality (Pieter Wuille)
8a41e1e Use boost::unordered_map for mapBlockIndex (Pieter Wuille)
145d5be Introduce BlockMap type for mapBlockIndex (Pieter Wuille)
a0dbe43 checkpoints.cpp depends on main, it can use mapBlockIndex directly (Pieter Wuille)
Thanks to Pieter Wuille for most of the work on this commit.
I did not fixup the overhaul commit, because a rebase conflicted
with "remove fields of ser_streamplaceholder".
I prefer not to risk making a mistake while resolving it.
The implementation of each class' serialization/deserialization is no longer
passed within a macro. The implementation now lies within a template of form:
template <typename T, typename Stream, typename Operation>
inline static size_t SerializationOp(T thisPtr, Stream& s, Operation ser_action, int nType, int nVersion) {
size_t nSerSize = 0;
/* CODE */
return nSerSize;
}
In cases when codepath should depend on whether or not we are just deserializing
(old fGetSize, fWrite, fRead flags) an additional clause can be used:
bool fRead = boost::is_same<Operation, CSerActionUnserialize>();
The IMPLEMENT_SERIALIZE macro will now be a freestanding clause added within
class' body (similiar to Qt's Q_OBJECT) to implement GetSerializeSize,
Serialize and Unserialize. These are now wrappers around
the "SerializationOp" template.
Needed to build breakage reported by Arnavion on IRC:
qt/splashscreen.cpp: In constructor 'SplashScreen::SplashScreen(const QPixmap&, Qt::WindowFlags, bool)':
qt/splashscreen.cpp:33:98: error: 'FormatFullVersion' was not declared in this scope
b197bf3 [Qt] disable tray interactions when client model set to 0 (Philip Kaufmann)
314fbd9 [Qt] use BitcoinGUI::DEFAULT_WALLET constant in bitcoin.cpp (Philip Kaufmann)
8ca6a16 [Qt] ensure all class attributes are init to 0 (Philip Kaufmann)
Split up util.cpp/h into:
- string utilities (hex, base32, base64): no internal dependencies, no dependency on boost (apart from foreach)
- money utilities (parsesmoney, formatmoney)
- time utilities (gettime*, sleep, format date):
- and the rest (logging, argument parsing, config file parsing)
The latter is basically the environment and OS handling,
and is stripped of all utility functions, so we may want to
rename it to something else than util.cpp/h for clarity (Matt suggested
osinterface).
Breaks dependency of sha256.cpp on all the things pulled in by util.
This number was still tracked even though it's shown nowhere in the UI
anymore. It was originally removed because it didn't match the actual number of
records in the view (which contains outputs, not transactions) thus was
confusing people.
- this prevents the ability to fiddle around with the system tray when
already shutting down (e.g. on slow shutdowns because of a proxy delay)
- extends solution for #4360
- ensure normal and watch-only stuff looks consistent
- simplify UI by removing unneeded UI layout elements
- change some comments to watch-only from watchonly
- remove starting height as table header and replace with ping time
- remove columnResizingFixer
- add local address (if available) in detailed node view (on top of the
right view below the remote address)
- remove some .c_str() by using QString::fromStdString()
- rename Address to Address/Hostname
- rename secs to just s for ping time
- use MODEL_UPDATE_DELAY from guiconstants.h for the peer refresh time
- make PeerTableModel::columnCount() return no hard-coded value
- remove and cleanup dup private: section in RPCConsole header
- add new defaults for column sizes
- remove behaviour which keeps disconnected peers selected and also remove
code which keeps track of last selected peer stats
- add sync height to detail view
- add some additional NULL pointer checks for clientModel in
rpcconsole.cpp
Fixes various issues and cleans up code
- Fixes issue #4500: Amount widget +/- has floating point rounding artifacts
- Amount box can now be emptied again, without clearing to 0
Also aligns the amount to the right, as in other places.
