Transaction index changes
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
The transaction index is now built separately from the main node procedure,
|
|
meaning the `-txindex` flag can be toggled without a full reindex. If bitcoind
|
|
is run with `-txindex` on a node that is already partially or fully synced
|
|
without one, the transaction index will be built in the background and become
|
|
available once caught up. When switching from running `-txindex` to running
|
|
without the flag, the transaction index database will *not* be deleted
|
|
automatically, meaning it could be turned back on at a later time without a full
|
|
resync.
