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.

- add DEFAULT_LISTEN in net.h and use in the code (shared
setting between core and GUI)
Important: This makes it obvious, that we need to re-think the
settings/options handling, as GUI settings are processed before
any parameter-interaction (which is mostly important for network
stuff) in AppInit2()!

Generally useless information. Only updates on connect time, not after
that. Peers can easily lie and the median filter is not effective in
preventing that.
In the past it was used for progress display in the GUI but
`CheckPoints::guessVerificationProgress` provides a better way that is now used.
It was too easy to mislead it. Peers do lie about it in practice, see issue #4065.
From the RPC, `getpeerinfo` gives the peer raw values, which are more
useful.
- introduce DEFAULT_SCRIPTCHECK_THREADS in main.h
- only show values from -"MAX_HW_THREADS" up to 16 for -par, as it
makes no sense to try to leave more "cores free" than the system
supports anyway
- use the new constant in optionsdialog and remove defaults from
.ui file
After the Qt5 switch, status icons were being cut off by 1-2px.
Also fixes some other cases where the UI is slightly off mentioned in #3800.
Fixes#3800.
- 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
- rebuilt some ui file layout to remove unreal values from the files
- remove an unneeded attribute from an ui file
- add / remove some spaces in files
4d90102 [Qt] Add sorting feature to the requested payments table (Cozz Lovan)
8476d5d [Qt] Permanently store requested payments in wallet (Cozz Lovan)
b10e147 wallet: add interface for storing generic data on destinations (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
- 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
- add new options for database cache and script verification threads
- add label which displays options that are overridden by command-line
parameters
- proxy settings are not applied on-the-fly anymore and require a client
restart (ApplyProxySettings() was removed and was not working very well
anyway)
- re-work options reset and require a client shutdown (as it is much
easier to do it this way without having to mess with what can be changed
on-the-fly and what needs a restart anyway)
- options reset now writes default values for every single option
- when changing an option which requires a client restart display a 10
second warning message in statusLabel (via a QTimer)
- when applying the changes via ok change that to a persistent message,
which is displayed even after closing optionsdialog and re-open it, when
no client restart was made
- remove dialog boxes used when changing language or proxy settings
- add setRestartRequired() and isRestartRequired() to OptionsModel and
use the set function when updating options to signal OptionsDialog
when a restart is needed
- resize optionsdialog a little and add some min sizes for certain GUI
elements
- remove apply button from optionsdialog
- save and restore optionsdialog window position
- update nTransactionFee in QSettings with a set -paytxfee value when
opening optionsdialog (I'm not sure about this yet, perhaps revert to
not updating QSettings and just display current -paytxfee value in
optionsdialog.)
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.
- remove style sheets from ui files and use Qt attributes instead
- make some more strings untranslatable, to make life for translators
easier
- split up long tooltips an rework the texts a little
- remove monospace labels from sendcoinsdialog also
- use a validated line edit for the change address
- add a tooltip to change address switch
- ensure we have a valid change address in
CoinControlDialog::coinControl->destChange or just CNoDestination()
- some small ui file changes
- this adds a delete button for insecure and secure payment requests in
the sendcoins dialog
- it also enables the delete button even for single and empty entries, as
this is much easier to handle and doesn't need to special case single
entries
- big parts of the ui file were changed, because I copied the delete
button and had to delete the layout too and created it from scratch
(which seems to cleanup the rows and colums in the layout also, which is
nice IMHO)
Keep a list of requested payments in the Receive tab so that a user can
recall previously created requests after closing their windows.
Currently this list is not stored between bitcoin-qt sessions. This can
be implemented later, but it is not clear where it should be stored as
I don't think it belongs in the wallet (maybe in QSettings?)
- add missing license headers
- make compatible with Qt5
- enforce header cleanup style
- small code style cleanups
- rename Coin Control dialog into Coin Control Address Selection
- use default font for the windows labels (no monospace)
- rework window title to not include Bitcoin - in front, as no other
dialog does this
- favor a connect() call over an own function for clearing the traffic
graph
- write monospace lowercase (seems to be correct after some web search)
and add a comment that we should avoid / remove fixed font sizes
- this shows insecure (unsecured) payment requests in a new yellowish
colored UI (based on the secure payment request UI) instead of our
normal payment UI
- allows us to receive paymentACK messages for insecure payment requests
- allows us to handle expirations for insecure payment request
- changed walletmodel, so that all types of payment requests don't touch
the addressbook
- remove 2 unneeded windowTitle attributes, which bloat our translations
- cleanup some unneeded .cpp/.h includes and class usages
- use a more generic string for clearing sendcoinsdialog and
requestpaymentdialog
- edit 2 strings in BitcoinGUI and replace "edit" with "show" as this
seems more clear in the context where it is used
- changes some strings that were forgotton or made no sense in the conext
they are used
- remove an orphan file from the qt project file
- revert a small change in signverifymessagedialog.ui
- guard #include "bitcoin-config.h" with #if defined(HAVE_CONFIG_H)
- remove windowTitle from addressbookpage.ui
- We no longer have an address book, but "address lists", update message
accordingly
- Add tooltips here and there
- Clarify text on buttons
- add Copy Address button to receive request dialog
Simplifies the dialog (makes it look less crowded) as well
as the code and makes it possible to copy multiple fields at once.
Also format bitcoin URI as URI, add copy button for URI.
These no longer make sense in the new workflow. It's less
clicks to reach sign/verify message from the menu. And sending
from the address book is one kind of automatic address reuse
we're trying to avoid.
- remove some unneeded translatable strings from sendcoinsentry.ui file and
rename some elements for better readability
- optimize string prorcessing in SendCoinsDialog::on_sendButton_clicked()
- make all UI labels for secure payments plain text and move the settings
to sendcoinsentry.ui file
- remove unneeded button and default button definiton from warning message
boxes
- remove fixed font-size when sending coins to an address with label and
use monospace font for addresses
- rename URL into URI in paymentserver where correct
- add some missing Qt-coding-stuff in paymentserver
- change QSpinBox to QLineEdit as base for BitcoinAmountField in .ui files
(as this is the result when converting the BAF back into base)
- remove some c_str() and replace with QString::fromStdString()
- remove several new-lines
- remove unneeded spaces
- indentation fixes
Add support for a Payment Protocol to Bitcoin-Qt.
Payment messages are protocol-buffer encoded and communicated over
http(s), so this adds a dependency on the Google protocol buffer
library, and requires Qt with OpenSSL support.
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 value gets stale really quickly, do not hardcode it into a message.
Completely remove it for now.
Later on, a mechanism will be added to determine fees based on the mempool.
Closes#2576
Having the export button at the top was confusing people into thinking
the entire wallet was exported.
This commit moves the export button to the address book, receiving
addresses and transaction tabs separately.
- use labelExplanation for sending and receiving tab and move the string
from the ui-file to the source
- ensure that the table holding the label and address is resized so that
the address column fits the address and the label column is stretched to
fit the window size
- rename some stuff for much easier readbility in the code (I find it hard
to get the meaning of stuff like labels or buttons)
- this change allows us to keep the translation without the need to
re-translate any string, when we update the copyright year
- copyright symbol is changed to HTML to ensure we get no encoding
issues and it's removed from the translation string so translators don't
break it by mistake
- a click on "Reset Options" sets all options to the default values by
removing all stored settings (QSettings), loading the defaults and
saving them as the new settings
- before the reset is executed the user is presented a confirmation dialog
- special casing was needed for StartAtStartup
Implements #1948
- Add macro `CLIENT_VERSION_IS_RELEASE` to clientversion.h
- When running a prerelease (the above macro is `false`):
- In UI, show an orange warning bar at the top. This will be used for other
warnings (and alerts) as well, instead of the status bar.
- For `bitcoind`, show the warning in the "errors" field in `getinfo`
response.
- add a new label, which can be updated independently from the whole
license information stuff
- the benefit is, we don't need to re-translate that whole wall of text
every year the copyright info changes
- update to the same copyright string we use in the source and in the
bitcoin-qt.exe meta-data information
- removes an obsolete entry from the ui-file
- add enableApplyButton() and disableApplyButton() to optionsdialog.{h/cpp}
- they are used to ensure the Ok button does not get disabled, when Apply needs to be disabled (standard UX should allow Ok always to dismiss the dialog and only disable it, when we have a faulty proxy IP)
- disable Apply after initially loading the settings, as nothing new needs to be saved
- remove orphan settings from optionsdialog.ui that are default anyway
- this helps user to not think our Client is called "Bitcoin Wallet"
- change "About Bitcoin-Qt" to "About Bitcoin"
- change "Bitcoin debug window" to "Bitcoin - Debug window"
- change "Client" in debug Window to "Bitcoin Core"
- remove unused #include <QDebug> and lblBTC label
- update Bitcoin input field to a BitcoinAmountField to allow Bitcoin unit selection
- use BitcoinUnits::format for the resulting amount parameter in the generated URI (always use BTC as per BIP21)
- move MAX_URI_LENGTH and EXPORT_IMAGE_SIZE to guiconstants.h
- add OptionsModel in AddressBookPage and use it in on_showQRCode_clicked() to pass it to QRCodeDialog
- add OptionsModel in QRCodeDialog to enable display unit updates
- add updateDisplayUnit() slot to be able to imediately update currently set bitcoin unit
- make all labels in the UI-file plain text
- resize dialog to match for an updated layout (fields are now stacked and new field)
- remove unused parameters from private slots
- only enable save button, when QR Code was generated
- show message when entered amound is invalid
- add read-only QPlainTextEdit field to output generated URI
- add UI-feedback via QValidatedLineEdit
- copy button for generated signature was moved to the signature output field
- add an addressbook button to verify message tab
- input fields are now evenly ordered for sign and verify tabs
- update FIRST_CLASS_MESSAGING support to ensure a good UX
- add a button and context menu entry in addressbook for verify message (to be consistent with sign message)
- focus is now only set/changed, when clearing input fields or adding an address via addressbook
- re-work / update some strings
- ensure model gets initialized in the SignVerifyMessageDialog constructor
- add checks for a valid model to both addressbook buttons
- remove unneeded includes for Qt GUI elements that are listed in ui_signverifymessagedialog.h anyway
- remove "#include <QString>" as this is included in the header
- add some missing plural forms that can be translated
- change "yours" into "own address", which is easier to understand and translate in that context
- cleanup translatable strings to not include HTML or unneeded chars (e.g. ":")
- resize TransactionDescDialog a little (remove unwanted line-breaks with non english translations)
- extend network options with a SOCKS version selection
- changing "Unit to show amounts in:" now also updates the unit used in the transaction fee box
- string updates
- link Apply button and OK button when enabling or disabling them
- use LookupNumeric() from netbase to verify proxy address (via an EventFilter)
- change proxy address field to QValidatedLineEdit and add visual feedback
- add a status label used for displaying a message for invalid proxy addresses
- allow usage of IPv6 address as proxy address
- added warning message when enabling / disabling SOCKS proxy
This adds a field labelled 'Immature' in the overview section under the 'unconfirmed' field, which shows mined
income that has not yet matured (which is currently not displayed anywhere, even though the transactions
exist in the transaction list). To do that I added a 'GetImmatureBalance' method to the wallet, and connected
that through to the GUI as per the 'GetBalance' and 'GetUnconfirmedBalance' methods. I did a small 'no-op'
change to make the code in adjacent functions a little more readable (imo); it was a change I had made in my
repo earlier...but I thought it wouldn't hurt so left it in. Immature balance comes from mined income that is
at least two blocks deep in the chain (same logic as displayed transactions).
My reasoning is:
- as a miner, it's a critical stat I want to see
- as a miner, and taking into account the label 'immature', the uncertainty is pretty clearly implied
- those numbers are already displayed in the transaction list
- this makes the overview numbers add up to what's in the transaction list
- it's not displayed if the immature balance is 0, so won't bother non-miners
I also 'cleaned' the overview UI a little, moving code to the XML and removing HTML.
* This allows copy/pasting whole or partial messages
* Handle output more consistently in console
* No more scrollbars-in-scrollbars: by setting per-pixel scrolling on the table, cells can have any height
* Decorations for "request" and "reply" are changed to the txin and txout icons instead of colored squares
